Send us a textJulie Reynolds describes how she gradually lost her hearing in her 30's and developed diabetes in her 40's these 2 conditions also developed in in her mother, her children and other maternal relative. This led to a diagnosis of maternally inherited diabetes and deafness that results from a change in the mitochondrial DNA.  Kash Patel explains the science between diabetes, deafness and a maternal inheritance and why there is a lot of variation in the presence and severity of clinical features

Steve Gruber discusses news and headlines 

I will sue this company for giving me deafness because their advertisement is too loud while I am pumping gas. Either tone it down or stop it. I'm already deaf in one because of cancer treatments, don't make me deaf in the other ear. This crap has been going on too long and you need to change your business tactics.

According to the World Health Organization (WHO) an estimated 1.3 billion people or 16% of the global population have a significant disability. A disability is a condition that can be mental or physical, and can affect a person's vision, movement, thinking, learning, communication, hearing, mental health or social relationships. However, not all disabilities are the same. Some disabilities are genetic, passed down from generation to generation, while others may have been caused by an incident out of the person's control. In this episode of Exploring Ethics, Professor Joseph Stramondo will discuss the narrative, identity and ethics of choosing disability.

BUFFALO, NY- January 14, 2025 – A new #research paper was #published in Aging (listed by MEDLINE/PubMed as "Aging (Albany NY)" and "Aging-US" by Web of Science) Volume 16, Issue 22 on November 26, 2024, entitled “When do the pathological signs become evident? Study of human mesenchymal stem cells in MDPL syndrome.” Researchers from the University of Rome Tor Vergata, Fondazione Policlinico Tor Vergata, Roma Tre University, and Meyer Children's Hospital IRCCS have identified early cellular changes associated with Mandibular Hypoplasia, Deafness, Progeroid Features, and Lipodystrophy (MDPL) syndrome, a rare genetic aging disorder caused by a mutation in the POLD1 gene. MDPL leads to fat loss, distinct facial features, and metabolic disturbances. This study aimed to better understand how MDPL progresses at the cellular level. MDPL syndrome is extremely rare, with only a few documented cases worldwide, making it difficult to study. To investigate the disease, researchers Spitalieri Paola, Guerrieri Lara, Murdocca Michela, Di Cesare Silvia, Maccaroni Serena, Pecorari Rosalba, Nardone Anna Maria, Candi Eleonora, Colasuonno Fiorella, Gori Giulia, Traficante Giovanna, Novelli Giuseppe, and Sangiuolo Federica, converted skin cells from three female MDPL patients and two healthy donors into human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs). These hiPSCs were then transformed into mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), cells that can form tissues like bone and fat, which are primarily affected in MDPL syndrome. The study revealed that MSCs from MDPL patients exhibited signs of premature aging much earlier than expected. The cells had irregular shapes, grew at a slower rate, and showed higher levels of cellular stress. “These cells differentiate with lower efficiency, proliferate more slowly and have abnormal mitochondrial activity with increased production of ROS. Furthermore, the telomeres show evident shortening.” All the findings suggest that aging-related changes may occur long before patients display visible symptoms of the disease. This highlights the need for early diagnosis and intervention, which could delay or even prevent the most debilitating effects of MDPL syndrome. In summary, this study offers new perspectives on the initial cellular impacts of MDPL, opening the door for the creation of novel treatments. The findings highlight the potential for personalized therapies and emphasize the critical role of lab-created hiPSCs in advancing research on rare genetic diseases and age-related conditions.

Some Apple AirPod wireless headphones can be used as hearing aids with a new software update. It's a high-profile move that experts applaud, even if they only reach a small portion of the millions of Americans with hearing loss. An estimated 30 million people—1 in 8 Americans over the age of 12—have hearing loss in both ears. Millions would benefit from hearing aids but most have never tried them, according to the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders. Countless others have tried them, but don't use them because of cost, poor quality, poor fit, how they look, or for other reasons. Over the past few years, there's been a push to change that. Two years ago, federal rules changed to allow hearing aids to be sold over the counter, a move that many hoped would bring better and cheaper options to patients. It's unclear yet whether the rule change has helped, experts say. But turning AirPods into hearing aids is the kind of creative move advocates had hoped for. The hearing aid feature is available with AirPods Pro 2 models only and requires an iPhone or iPad to set it up. It starts with built-in tests that will help users determine if they have hearing loss, set up the feature if they do, and set personalized amplification levels. While there are many other earbud-type devices that can function the same way, experts agreed that the AirPods addition is a good one, simply because of the way it could help normalize hearing aids. “It's just mainstream,” said Barbara Kelley, executive director of Hearing Loss Association of America. The ubiquity of AirPods could make people worried about the look of a hearing aid more open to using them. This article was provided by The Associated Press.

Deafness is known for being an invisible disability, which can lead to exclusion and loneliness. According to a Human Rights Watch article from 2019, 70 million deaf people across the world use sign language to communicate. Well sign singers take that one step further, by adapting song lyrics into sign language for the deaf and hard of hearing. In addition to making entertainment more accessible to deaf people and the hard of hearing, this musical activity singing is also a form of artistic expression in its own right. Sign singing can be just as diverse as vocal singing, demonstrating great creativity. There are many different forms, like rap signing, slow signing and hard signing. How do sign singers translate music? Where does it come from? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

 Audio recordingSermon manuscript:If you can imagine what it would be like to be deaf and unable to speak, then you might understand why Jesus said “Ephphatha,” which means “be opened” in our Gospel reading. Deafness and muteness close a person in on himself. It is difficult to take in the thoughts of others because you cannot hear them speaking. It is difficult to communicate one's own thoughts because the speaking is not clear. Hearing well and speaking well can easily be taken for granted. We don't know a good thing until it's gone. Restoring losses like blindness, deafness, lameness, or muteness dramatically improves people's lives. Our Old Testament reading from Isaiah 35 talks about changing lives for the better. Isaiah lived more than 700 years before Christ, but he talks about things that Jesus did: “The eyes of the blind will be opened, the ears of the deaf unstopped; the lame man shall leap like a dear, and the tongue of the mute will sing for joy.” Jesus did many miracles having to do with precisely these ailments. Think of how their lives were changed for the better. There are several videos on the Internet that show something similar. Perhaps you've seen them. The videos show little kids getting glasses for the first time, or hearing aids or implants for the first time. These kids already know mom and dad, but they had never seen them clearly or heard them clearly. The first time they can see or hear they are filled with awe. Joy comes over their faces. Sometimes there are tears. The world opens up for them. That's life and liveliness. It is as Jesus said, “I came so that you may have life, and have it more abundantly.” Jesus's bringing of abundant life is, again, fulfilling what Isaiah wrote. All of Isaiah 35 is about the restoration of life that the Christ brings about. Dry, dead, and barren places like the desert will come to life and bloom. Fraud, violence, and death will be no more. The redeemed will enter into Zion with singing. Everlasting joy shall be upon their heads. What features most prominently in Isaiah 35, however, is life with God. It says, “They shall see the glory of the Lord, the majesty of our God.” We heard at the beginning of our Old Testament reading these words, “Strengthen the weak hands, and make firm the feeble knees. Say to those who have an anxious heart, ‘Be strong, fear not! Behold, your God will come with vengeance, with the recompense of God. He will come and save you.'” Those are bracing words if you have the guts to believe them. “You will see God,” and “God is coming for you.” If you think about it, isn't it the case that we need to be “opened up,” so to speak, to this reality of God—that we should see him, that he's coming for us? Blind people need to be opened up to the reality of seeing. Deaf people need to be opened up to the reality of hearing. It's not like sights and sounds don't exist when someone is blind or deaf, it's just that they cannot perceive what's actually there. So it is with God. Our inability or unwillingness to acknowledge him doesn't mean that he doesn't exist. To no longer be severely hampered—to no longer be blind, deaf, lame, and mute when it comes to God—requires a miracle along the lines of the man whom Jesus helped in our Gospel reading. We need to be opened up, otherwise we won't even know what we are missing. So it can be also for those who are physically blind, deaf, lame, or mute. Those conditions can be lived with. They are not fatal. It's just that large swaths of reality and joy are withheld. We can be that way with God too. In fact, that is our natural predisposition. We by nature are closed off from God, and we think that's just normal. Consider your daily routine. It's so easy to go through an entire day without hardly giving a single thought towards God. We just follow our routine: Get up, make coffee, take a shower, go to work or school, come home, watch Netflix, go to bed. God is there the whole time, but we have nothing to do with him. It's as though we were blind, deaf, lame, and mute towards him without even knowing it. I could almost see Jesus groaning over us like he did with the man in our Gospel reading. “Wake up you sleepy head!” I could see Jesus saying to us, “Be opened.” Life is more than food and drink. Life is more than work and vacation. Life is more than amusing ourselves to death. We can be as unthinking and uncaring as livestock, consuming what's given to us, oblivious to the coming slaughter. That's not how we are to be. We are much greater than the other animals. We have been made in the image of God. That makes us capable of high and divine things that we should take in, consider, and interact with. We can know things like truth, justice, mercy, peace, sacrifice, hope. On top of all these things we can even know God. Now, I can hear some critics saying that all that stuff about truth, mercy, and so on is a waste of time and money. There are a lot of people—the most powerful people in our society—who think that jobs, money, business, technology, and so on are the only things that matter. All that other stuff is too high-falutin'. These people usually pride themselves for their practicality and for living in the real world. They're wrong! They don't live in the real world. They've made for themselves a world that doesn't have a Creator in it who daily and richly provides me with all that I need. The real world has God in it. The real world has God's commands and curses, his promises and blessings. Just because a person is unable or unwilling to acknowledge that, doesn't make it so. Imagine if there were a blind man who didn't believe that such a thing as sight exists. He's utterly convinced of that because he's never experienced it. Thus this arrogant man would like to impose his lack and his poverty on everyone else. So it is with those who scoff at God's Word, who scoff at Jesus's sacraments, who scoff at truth, love, beauty, and so on. Why? Because it's work that's important. Or amusements are important. Or it's simply a matter of being anesthetized and vegging out to pass the time. I know a lot of people like this. I know myself. I know that I can very easily pass my days without much thought regarding God. I know, as another example, that I do not love God with all my heart, with all my soul, with all my strength, and with all my mind. A spiritually blind person might respond, “Well, no one can do that, so who cares?” But what if we really are supposed to? What if we really can? What if Jesus was sent to cure our blindness? What if Jesus is meant to open up in us a closed-off-ness that we just thought was normal? Jesus says, “I came that you may have life, and have it more abundantly.” Jesus turns back the curses that hamper life. He heals physical blindness, deafness, and so on. Everyone can see the goodness of that. What is not realized as frequently is that Jesus opens us up spiritually to things we wouldn't otherwise know. We wouldn't otherwise know these things, because these things are only learned from the prophets, from Jesus, and from the apostles. Just as the blind man doesn't know what it means to see until sight is given, so also we do not know what it is like to know God until Jesus opens us up to that. We can know God by his Word. We can learn how to live with him in his creation from the Psalms. We can learn about our future from prophesies like Isaiah 35. We can begin to love God by the power of the Holy Spirit. We can think about God more often than never or twice a day. We can call upon him in prayer. We can restrain ourselves when we know that going further down the path of temptation would bring us into sin. We can begin to live a new life. What some can't see or hear we can begin to see and hear. But, as the apostle says, “Now we see in a mirror dimly, but then we will see face to face. Now we know in part, then we shall know fully, even as we have ben fully known.” Paul is talking about how we only get an inkling in this life. I suspect an experience awaits us that is something like those videos that I mentioned at the beginning of this sermon. Those little kids never knew that they could see so well until the first time those glasses were put on their faces. They didn't know how beautiful Mom's voice was until they heard it. So it will be also for us. What will it be like to see God? What will it be like to look Jesus in the face? Jesus opens us up to this hope with his Gospel. No one has seen God except Jesus who came from God. And yet, because of Jesus, we will see God in his holiness and splendor. I suspect that just a moment of that will contain more living in it than our entire life here below. Therefore, do not be deceived. Don't be tricked out of this healing. Jesus warns us against following those who are blind: “If the blind lead the blind, they will both fall into the pit.” Do not be blind to God. Do not be blind to truth, love, righteousness, sin, justice, redemption, and many other spiritual things. Our world is full of people who say that none of that matters. They are blind. They are closed in on themselves. “Ephphatha!” Be opened to God and to one another. He who has ears to hear, let him hear!

* CNN correspondent Tom Foreman delivered a fact-check Wednesday against Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz after he claimed to have carried weapons "in war. There is no evidence that at any time Governor Walz was in a position of being shot at, and some of his language could easily be seen to suggest that he was. * "stolen valor" - Veterans who served in the Army National Guard battalion with Walz accused him of abandoning them upon learning of their upcoming deployment to Iraq in 2005, according to a 2018 letter posted to Facebook. * Gov. Tim Walz pushed to turn Minnesota into an abortion "safe haven" just one day after the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade in 2022. * Tim Walz's first executive order as Minnesota governor was establishing a diversity, inclusion and equity council. Walz designated himself as chair of the "One Minnesota Council on Diversity, Inclusion, and Equity" in 2019. * Walz signed into law state legislation in March 2023 allowing illegals to obtain driver's licenses, opening the door for an estimated 81,000 aliens in Minnesota. * Walz signed into law legislation that gives state-funded healthcare and free college tuition to illegals while governor. * Tim Walz signed a bill making Minnesota a "Trans Refugee State. No age limits for minors who could receive "gender affirming care. * Lack of oversight from Gov. Tim Walz of Minnesota's administration contributed to the theft of $250 million from a federal food aid program, according to an audit published by the Office of the Legislative Auditor (OLA) for the state of Minnesota in June. * Mugshot of Tim Walz Resurfaces After Arrest for Driving 96 mph in a 55 Zone – Campaign Claimed He Was “Not Drunk” and Blamed Incident on Walz's ‘Deafness' - TheGatewayPundit.com * Kamala Harris and Husband Doug Emhoff donated several thousand dollars to a Washington, DC, nonprofit that openly called for fewer police and advocated for sanctuary city legislation. * Walz attends a church that preaches beliefs related to gender, race and sexuality that many Christian denominations strongly oppose. Materials published by Pilgrim Lutheran Church instruct parishioners not to refer to God using male pronouns, push congregants to support reparation funds, encourage them to celebrate Ramadan and include a modified gender-neutral version of the Lord's Prayer, among other liberal practices. Pilgrim Lutheran Church is part of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA), a mainline protestant denomination that has been criticized by some conservative Christians for ordaining transgender and lesbian bishops as well as for its embrace of LGBT ideology. * Sam Promotes a New Idea for Debates!

In this episode of the Parent Them Successful Podcast, we uncover what to look for if you believe your child has an undetected hearing defect. In the IEP world, hearing defects, or as IDEA calls it, possible “Hard of Hearing” eligibility, is considered a low-incidence eligibility category. That means that this eligibility category is somewhat rare and special funding is set aside for these students to access equipment and other tools they may need to access the general curriculum. So, if you suspect your child is suffering from a hearing defect, I will share what to look for, misbehaviors that are often misdiagnosed, and treatment options. So, tune in until the end to learn more about what you need to know.

The U.S. Supreme Court is hearing a case on the approval of mifepristone for medical abortion - a case which could change the availability of the drug in the US, and which hinges on papers linking abortion to mental distress. However, those papers are contested, and some have been retracted already - Julia Littell and Antonia Biggs tell us how that science is being used in court, and why retraction is essential. Awakening from anaesthetic is difficult enough, but imagine you're three and only communicate through sign language - which no one can understand. We hear from Kirsten, a mother who thinks everyone should learn at least a few key sign language phrases.

This week we'll discuss Beethoven's battle with deafness and how losing it helped him win the war; the heroic nature of his work and how it can help you be a hero today; one of the worst pieces of music Beethoven ever wrote and why I love it so much; and a game I shoehorned into this space because I needed another segment.Hal Hammons serves as preacher and shepherd for the Lakewoods Drive church of Christ in Georgetown, Texas.

Ludwig Van Beethoven began to lose his hearing at age 28. By age 44, his hearing loss was complete, most likely caused by compression of the eighth cranial nerve associated with Paget's disease of bone. Despite his deafness, Beethoven continued to compose symphony music. He never gave up.
