Menieres in the Independent today   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #44782 of 45721 |
Hi everyone,

I just wanted to let you know that a feature about my experiences of
Menieres-related deafness and music was published in the Independent
newsaper today here in the UK.

http://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/health-and-
wellbeing/features/mniegraveres-and-music-the-sound-of-silence-
838792.html

It was privelege and an inspiration to interview the deaf musicians I
heard from, so I hope you like the piece.

And the links aren't up on the Independent webpage yet, but you can
check out the music and the musicians' details at:

http://www.myspace.com/laurenceamerymusic

http://www.deafrave.com

http://www.matd.org.uk

I know they'd be thrilled to have your messages / support / friend
requests etc! I think its really important to spread positive
messages about deafness as well as understanding and supporting each
other through the difficult times, so lets spread the word...
