Dea
By Robbie Wilde as told to Kenneth Miller
II was born in England with perfect hearing. In 1990, when I
was five, my family moved to the United States. I started getting
ear infections every three months or so. We didnt have health
insurance at the time and when I got a third infection, my
parents couldn't pay for the treatment. I went deaf in my right
ear and was left with 50 percent hearing in my left. Over time
my remaining hearing dropped to 20 percent, where it is today
My doctors predicted that I would be completely deaf by now
so I think I'm doing pretty well
2 There was always music on in my house when I was little
I loved listening to Metallica, Led Zeppelin, Bob Marley
Michael Jackson.My dad was a DJ, so he played disco,
folk, dance, rock, and music from other countries. For my
18th birthday, my dad asked me to deejay at the restaurant
he owned. After doing that for a few weeks. I was hooked. I
wanted to learn more
