My husband and I are both musicians. I took it  36   granted that one day our daughter Holly would learn to play an instrument.

In 2000 Holly fell  37   and the doctor said she may have been left   38    deaf. “She won’t be able to hear music in any shape or form,” said the doctor. It was a great   39   .

In 2001, her right ear was fitted with a cochlear implant --- electronic equipment that provides a sense of    40    for people who are completely deaf. Seven years later, another was fitted in her    41    ear. The doctors played us a model of what music would sound like to Holly --- I was horrified    42   it was just white noise.

The brain is complex and adapts to many   51   ;in some way, Holly has made   52   of it all. She loves life. She doesn’t think about what happened to her and says   53   , “I don’t want to talk about bad things. Let’s talk about good things.”

I was determined that her life would not be   54   by a miserable event, but never imagined that she could   55   what she has. I can only describe this as a miracle.
