On a cloudless spring day nearly three years after Cal and
Michele met, they stood before a preacher and Cal promised to love
Michele and to give her everything. Soon after, they began an
almost fairy-tale existence of wedded bliss, complete with a white
picket fence, two cats in the yard, and a perfect family-including
the baby girl Michele always wanted.
They had carefully planned and prepared for the arrival of their
daughter, Lourdess, whose name means "miracles of healing."
Although she entered the world perfect, the standard hearing test
mandated by the state produced spirit-crushing results. To their
shock and disbelief, their wonderful little angel had profound
hearing loss.
"Daddy, Did You Hear That Bird?: The Miracles of Hearing,"
Family, and Love shares the touching story of how they got through
the trials of having a deaf child, including the natural grieving
process they experienced upon learning the news. Even though they
wondered about her future, their strong personal relationship
helped them overcome the stress that destroys some marriages
burdened with caring for a special-needs child. The toughest tasks
involved working with service systems and professionals who were
guiding them through the process. Through it all, they had each
other and the knowledge that God was there for them, always.
"Daddy, Did You Hear That Bird?" reminds us that love always
trusts, hopes and perseveres but it never fails. As Cal and Michele
yearned for a miracle, a striking and poignant series of events
would reveal a miracle no one saw coming.
