Sisters win national prize

Implants have given them sound

Imagine a world without sound.

There is no verbal communication. No one can talk to you because there is no sound. There’s no music. No iconic melodies and instrumentals would ever be heard.

But there also isn’t any voice either – no speech. Without sound you wouldn’t be able to hear yourself let alone a parent, teacher or great speaker. You’d never get to tell a group of friends a story or your parents about your day, let alone sing a solo in your choir. You’d never hear someone say, “I love you.”
