Author Description

"Was sie sieht" is German for "what she sees". Born profoundly bisensorineural deaf, the author shares how having hearing impairment instills within her a strong sense of discernment. From wearing the body hearing aids to behind-the-ear (BTE) digital hearing aids well into her late thirties, Dr. Moreman's perspective is more visual than auditory. What she sees enhances her hearing comprehension. The purpose for this autobiographical collection of poems is to provide insight into how hearing impairment is different for each individual who has it and for others to experience slices of life through one individual with hearing impairment.
