Now, some might argue that, Cece can’t make friends because her partial defense interferes with the way she can build relationships. They also might argue that Cece couldn’t hear them when they were trying to talk to her. They think she’s weird just by the way she looks with her hearing aid. They also might argue that Cece can turn off her hearing aids and think that it’s mean and not want her to do that to them. They argue that Cece doesn’t tell them all her secrets like el Deafo or how she can use the microphone to hear where her teacher is in the building. Friends don’t like it when other friends keep secrets from them. The argument that i support is that Cece is able to build relationships and her partial defense doesn’t interfere. They said that Cece couldn’t hear them, but i say that she could hear them just fine but she couldn’t understand them. Cece made relationships with the others because she’s made friendships already with kids from her neighborhood that are there for her. Cece’s partial deafness can lead her to many friends like when she fit in the neighborhood kids they played together. Cece’s friends didn’t care about Cece wearing hearing aids they liked her by who she was to them. …show more content…

Cochlear implants represent a relatively new approach to treating deaf and partially deaf peoples via surgical implantation of a device which receives sounds from the environment, and transmits them via electrical stimulation of the auditory nerve. The cochlear implant represents an effective way to treat the hearing impaired on a case-by-case basis, offering successful results to those who otherwise may never be able to hear. We must disregard the population who have had both positive and negative reactions to the surgery to understand the surrounding controversy, which does not focus on the efficacy and success of the cochlear implant on the recipient, but rather on the deaf culture and whether the use of such a device imposes a societal standard which marginalizes the hearing impaired and categorizes them as “disabled”.

But in reality, Cece really wanted them to get back together, but Martha kept thinking the opposite. I remember when I was 3 years old, I was playing around with my friend, and we accidentally dropped a glass cup. A shard of the glass cut my eye, and to this day now I still have a scar. Ever since that had happened, I had never contacted or have met with that friend again. I tried knocking on his door once, but when he saw me he just ran away.

Prior to reading these chapters I wasn’t really sure what to expect. I have never really been exposed to the Deaf- World. I have watched shows such as Switched at Birth, but I know that it doesn’t completely portray the real Deaf- Community.

The foreshadowing in the story shows there was a hard decision to make between the teachers, in order for Martha to get the jacket. An example of this in the text is, “ I was almost back at my classroom door when I heard voices raised in anger as if in some sort of argument. I stopped. I didn’t mean to eavesdrop, I just hesitated, not knowing what to do” (107). The arguing between the teachers shows that there is going to be an issue with her receiving the jacket.
