Document Summary

I think anyone who says that a deaf person cannot be a singer does not really know what music is. In order to answer this question, one must look at the true meaning of what music is. Music is not only about hearing what one is saying. Music is words, beats, and feeling, all of which any human being, whether deaf or hearing can experience. I have always enjoyed classical music, and especially love some of the pieces that beethoven composed. It is truly incredible the pieces he wrote. It would still be incredible if he had been hearing, but the fact that he was not able to hear his music in his life, yet still created such beautiful pieces speaks so much about the death world. For as long as i can remember, i have been an admirer of helen keller.

Tiffaney is worried about her newborn son. Ever since she brought Caleb home from the hospital it has been so hard to get him to eat and he seems to be breathing hard all the time. She stopped breastfeeding and tried every formula on the market, but nothing has improved his feeding. So at his one month checkup her stomach is in knots as they place Caleb on the scale. “9 pounds 7oz” says the nurse. Tiffaney realizes Caleb has only gained one pound since he was born and she burst into tears.
In the exam room Dr. Baker checks Caleb for taking extra time feeling and listening to his chest. During the exam Tiffaney explains her struggle with trying to get her son to eat and how he cries almost the entire day. After the exam Dr. Baker says “When I listen to Caleb’s heart I hear an extra sound called a murmur. I want to use an echocardiogram and an ECG to get a good picture of all the parts of his heart.”
After a full day of tests Tiffaney meets with Dr. Baker in his office. “After a careful review of all the information I have discovered that Caleb has a hole in the heart muscle wall between his right and left ventricles. We call it a ventricular septal defect. That is probably why he has been so irritable and hard to feed. The hole is not very big but he will still need to have surgery to repair it” says Dr. Baker. Although the thought of her tiny son having surgery is terrifying Tiffaney is relieved to know why things have been so tough at home.

Excerpt From The Soloist by Steve Lopez
Preface
1     I'm on foot in downtown Los Angeles, hustling back to the office with another. deadline looming. That's when I see him. He's dressed in rags on a busy downtown street comer, playing Beethoven on a battered violin that looks like it's been pulled from a dumpster.
2     "That sounded pretty good, " 1 say when he finishes.
3     He jumps back three steps, eyeing me with suspicion. 1 see the name Stevie Wander carved into the face of the violin, along with felt-pen doodles.
4     "Oh, thank you very much," he says, obviously flattered. "Are you serious?"
5     "I'm not a musician," I answer. "But yes. It sounded good to me."
6     He is black, just beyond fifty, with butterscotch eyes that warm to the compliment. He is standing next to a shopping cart heaped over with all his belongings, and yet despite grubby, soiled clothing, there's a rumpled elegance about him. He speaks with a slight regional accent I can't place. Maybe he's from the Midwest or up near the Great? Lakes, and he seems to have been told to always stand up straight, enunciate, carry, himself with pride and respect others.
7     'I'm trying to get back in shape," he says. "But I'm going to get back in there, playing better. I just need to keep practicing."
8     "So you like Stevie Wonder?" 1 ask.
9     "Oh, yes, certainly, 'You Are the Sunshine of My Life.' 'My Cherie Amour.' I guess I shouldn't have written his name on my violin, though."
10    I write a column for the Los Angeles Times. The job is a little like fishing. You go out and drop a line, cast a net. I'm figuring this vagrant violinist is a column. Has to be.
11    "I'm in a hurry at the moment," I tell him, "but I'd like to come back and hear you play again."
12    'Oh, all right," he says, smiling appreciatively but with trepidation. He looks like....
