Heather Whitestone McCallum was born on February 24, 1973 in Dothan, Alabama (“Heather Whitestone”). When Heather turned 18 months old, she captured a high fever from the virus, Haemophilus Influenzae, which resulted in hospitalization. Whitestone was close to death, when the doctors prescribed her two extremely powerful antibiotics. She returned home as a normal toddler until her mother had an accident in the kitchen and realized something was wrong. Whitestone’s mother had dropped several pans while cooking, and Heather did not jump or move when the pans hit the floor. Heather was taken to a children’s hospital, where the doctors concluded that she had lost her hearing from Haemophilus Influenzae, the powerful antibiotics, or a combination of both (“Heather Whitestone | Bio | Premiere Motivational Speakers Bureau.”). At a young age, Whitestone’s parents trained her to read lips and speak using an educational arrangement titled, “Acoupedics.” Because she learned how to speak and read lips, she did not receive an interpreter during her years in public school (“Heather Whitestone”).

Eric knew what would happen if Sarah Byrnes were to leave the hospital, so he did not say anything. Due to the way that Eric kept the secret about Sarah Byrnes being able to talk shows how caring her is towards his friends.

Growing up, those around me might have come to the conclusion that I was spoiled by my parents. Now I agree, they help me out when needed, take me shopping every once in a while, and make sure I don’t hit rock bottom; however, I have always felt their love to be conditional. As long as I get good grades, follow the rules, and clean my room, then I get an “I am so proud of you” speech at the end of the day. My parents are very conservative, not only did I grow up in the church, I also attended a Christian school since pre-school all the way to my senior year in high school.

I Jennifer Procopio, came to know christ in three ways, one is by my parents, by attending church, and when I attended church school. My parents taught me about Jesus christ when I was young. I learned that Jesus Christ is the son of God, that he sacrificed himself for us, and I learned that he is the person who has created the world. I am glad that my parents have taught me about Jesus Christ because he is always here with us in the good and the bad days. I attend church with my family every Sunday, the church we attend is named “ Immaculate Heart of Mary.” Every Sunday we go to listen to the word of God because it is important to know what God is telling us. The bible is inspiring because it is the word of God and the person who created the world.Every Sunday I learn and understand about the meaning of God.
