If you’ve just been diagnosed with deafness, you’ve come to the right place. Crônicas da Surdez has been a reference on the subject since 2010 and has almost a thousand posts on hearing aids, cochlear implants, osteoanchored prostheses and testimonials from people with otosclerosis and all degrees of hearing loss.
Welcome to Crônicas da Surdez, Brazil’s largest online community of people with some degree of deafness who use hearing aids and cochlear implants. I hope this site will help you find answers to your questions and shed light on your anxieties.
I am
Paula Pfeifer
and I created the blog when I decided to come out of the deafness closet in 2010. It’s been 13 years of sharing experiences and connecting thousands of people with deafblindness in the four corners of Brazil and the world. I’m dedicated to demystifying hearing loss and helping people who are looking for hearing rehabilitation to have a better quality of life. Fighting for
accessibility for the deaf
and I am a member of the World Health Organization’s World Hearing Forum.
