<p>Dear All</p> <p>Thank you for taking the time to visit my Just Giving page.</p> <p>Our daughter Daisy and her twin sister Skye were born prematurely and as a result of life saving treatment&nbsp;Daisy sadly lost her hearing. Our initial reaction was one of complete devastation that was until we discovered Auditory Verbal UK which has transformed all our lives.</p> <p>Auditory Verbal Therapy teaches deaf children to listen and speak with age appropriate language through an intensive 3 year programme.&nbsp; The charity itself is non profit making and therefore all monies raised are invested to help support deaf children and their families.</p> <p>Watching Daisy's progress has been remarkable, she was given Cochlear Implants last May and within only 6 months of her operation she has achieved age appropriate language.&nbsp; I cannot underestimate the impact Auditory Verbal has had on Daisy's ability to hear and speak, this is all the more apparent as her twin sister Skye is hearing and it is almost impossible to tell who has hearing loss.</p> <p>Your sponsorship will help allow other deaf children to reach their true potential and enable them to participate in a hearing world.</p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure.
