America's acclaimed hearing-impaired comedienne tells her extraordinary story -- an inspirational account of hope, transformation, and bucking the odds.Born with a hearing loss that went undetected until she was eight, Kathy Buckley grew up in a quiet world, her family and teachers assuming she was slow. After overcoming this obstacle she went on to face other challenges -- abuse, poverty, being run over by a jeep, and cancer. Rather than be consumed by grief, Kathy sought the light of laughter, going on to become a successful female comic, an awardwinning writer of a one-woman show, and a beloved motivational speaker in demand throughout the country.Here, Kathy offers hilarious and soulful vignettes of the people and places that have transformed her life, revealing the gift that gave her power over her future -- a gift available to every one of us. If You Could Hear What I See is about a woman who made a choice: to overcome all the obstacles life threw her way, and to meet those challenges with dignity, courage, and laughter.read by the author
