Hi, I'm Carly.
Four years ago I lost the hearing in my left ear. I wasn't ill at the time and I had never had any problems with my ears.
It was a normal day until all of a sudden, my head filled with pressure and a loud screeching sound; in that moment the hearing in my left ear disappeared.
I had never heard of sudden hearing loss until it happened to me.
Learning to live with hearing loss and associated issues such as tinnitus, has taken time and support.
Rehabilitation doesn't just come in the form of the practical aspects of learning to live with a reduced sense of hearing, there are also emotional aspects of hearing loss. It took me over a year to realize that I needed to grieve my lost sound. You can read more about my story in my blog, My Hearing Loss Story.
There is still relatively little known about sudden hearing loss, which makes it difficult to know where to find information and support.
With your help, I aim to provide a website dedicated to supporting people with sudden hearing loss. This website will offer information, support and advice for anyone who has been affected by sudden hearing loss.
Through this crowdfunding page, I hope to raise enough money to pay for the first year of a plan for a professional website and the initial start-up and running costs.
All funds within the target amount of £ 400 will go towards the creating and development of the website. Any excess funds will be divided equally between the following charities: the British Tinnitus Association (BTA), Hearing Link, the Ménière's Society, and the Royal National Institute for Deaf People (RNID), who have all provided me with support in dealing with my hearing loss.
This crowdfunding page will be active until Monday 15th February.
Suddenly losing your hearing can be really scary. Please make a small donation — whatever you can afford — to help those affected by sudden hearing loss, find the information, advice and support to deal with this loss.
Thank you so much,
Carly Sygrove.
PS Updates regarding this campaign and the development of the Sudden Hearing Loss Support website will be posted here on my blog.
