MEET NOLAN. He is Sharie Kaminski's 2 year old grandson, who is deaf, loves reading books, watching diggers, playing on the playground, and cheering for sports. He enjoys time with his friends and teachers just s much as he loves being at home with his family and dogs. when asked what he want to be someday, Nolan will tell you a superhero, or maybe a baseball player.
Nolan was born with profound hearing loss, but with bilateral cochlear implants received at just 9 months old, he is learning to listen and communicate with confidence. Nolan began HEAR Wisconsin service at just 3 months old and he joined HEAR Wisconsin's Toddler Communication Group at age 1 and has made incredible progress. His language comprehension is now at age level with his hearing peers, and his curiosity, joy, and determination shine through every day.
With the support of family an the dedicated team at HEAR Wisconsin, Nolan is building the skills he needs to grow, learn, and dream big, whatever those dreams may be.
