Mixed up Maxi being me! This book is about me being deaf and daft
and how I coped growing up and living with deafness. I put pen to
paper and started to write Mixed up Maxi because, for far too long
deaf people have not been given a fair hearing, literally and
figuratively speaking. It all came to a head after the soap opera;
EastEnders created the character Ben Mitchell, who is the "deaf"
son, of Phil Mitchell. Ben doesn't display a single aspect of
deafness. I don't know if the actor is actually deaf or if
EastEnders just portrayed Ben as deaf and I use the word
"portrayed" very lightly. Since Ben arrived in EastEnders with his
National Health, blue hearing aid, not once have I heard* him say
"pardon?", "what did you say?" or "come again?" it gives the
impression that hearing aids cure deafness and this is far from
true.
