-- cheering at the 42,000-seat stadium
In Turkey, the most popular pro soccer team is
Besiktas, which plays at the 42,000-seat
stadium in Istanbul, Turkey. This Turkish club
has a big game coming up against a team from
Portugal. To make this big game special for
the fans, the Besiktas club management
has asked their fans to cheer - not in voice,
but with hands! They wanted the deaf to
be respected by hand-cheering, not voice-
cheering! It is impossible to tell Dallas
Cowboys fans to cheer with their hands!
It is different in Turkey.
-- one of the world's most tense operations
There was a newspaper story about an operation
that leaves everyone tense - the parents, the
doctors and the patients. It is the CI
operation. No one knows what will happen
after the operation. Will the patient be
able to hear clearly? Will the patient just
hear only whistles and beeps? Will there be
infections inside the ear? Will the CI
malfunction? Was selecting a CI over a
hearing aid the right choice?
