The cochlear question: as the parent of a deaf baby, should I give her an implant to help her hear? Cochlear implantation is controversial in ways that parallel medical situations such as artificial limbs and cornea transplants are not. Why does this issue provoke such fierce debate?This essay first appeared under the title The Cochlear Question on Aeon.coI knew my daughter could hear: not just because she loved music, but because she had perfect rhythm. She punched her fists in the air like a human metronome, and brought a doughy heel to the ground precisely on each downbeat. I had thrown off the yoke of milestone-tracking months earlier, having become fixated on her inability to roll during the precise developmental week for rolling. So when she didnt form consonants at the prescribed time, I made a deliberate choice to ignore it. It didnt occur to me that deafness might not be a binary, and that certain vibrations and pitches the downbeat of a song by toddler-music group the Wiggles, say could be apprehended, while other subtle speech sounds might be snatched out of a sentence. So it was a couple of months after her first birthday when we discovered that our Botticellian baby had mild hearing loss, and two years after that when she lost almost all of her remaining hearing entirely.Like most hearing parents of deaf children, my first close relationship with a deaf person was with my child. Despite a relatively broad cultural education, I knew next to nothing about hearing loss or deaf culture. What little I had absorbed was an incomplete and almost entirely inaccurate patchwork of pop culture snippets the mothers horror when her baby doesnt react to the fire engines siren in the film Mr Hollands Opus (1995); Beethovens struggle to hear the first performance of his Ninth Symphony; the lift scene in Jerry Maguire (1996) where the loving boyfriend signs you complete me to his partner; Quasimodos apparent industrial deafness from the bells of Notre-Dame; and, worst of all, the appalling memory of my university housemate imitating a deaf accent for laughs. This bleak landscape of ignorance and misinformation is often the lookout from which parents begin making decisions, as deaf critics have rightly pointed out. But although I began educating myself belatedly, it didnt take long for the calcified layers of assumptions and approximations to disintegrate. Chief among them was the unquestioned belief that hearing loss, for an early deafened person, is even a loss at all. Continue reading... ...
