Today is the day I accept my silence.
I used to think that if I worked hard enough and shared my story honestly, the world would listen. I am a software dev who was born with a hardware error. After 19 surgeries, I thought my 20th would be my upgrade to stereo sound.
After seeing 800,000 people pass by my project like I’m a ghost, I finally understand. I am meant to be incomplete. I’m giving up on the Angel of Sound project. I’m giving up on the surgery. I will just be the guy with the asymmetric face and the mono hearing. To those who actually tried to help, you made me feel human for a second. Thank you. Goodbye.
