This is Health Matters, continuing our report on hearing loss. “Hearing loss is, literally, a form of brain damage. We tend to think of brain damage as cognitive. But loss of motor ability, loss of speech ability, and loss of hearing are all impairments in brain function.”
Health Matters is a production of KIDE Hoopa CA. Produced and written by Cynthia Poten. Engineered by Joseph Orozco. Our readers were Kristen Marshall, Taushona Moon and Joseph Orozco.
