20. Karen Goes After Deaf Woman
Hi I (16m) am deaf and require hearing aids for protection and to help me hear a bit. I am 92% deaf on the right and 78% deaf on the left meaning — I can barely hear at all out of my right ear.
I was going home one day after finishing work at a local convenience store. Everything was normal and the traffic was quite fast. I sat down at my bus stop and waited to catch the next stop home. I get on the bus after waiting for about 20 minutes when I see a lady running yelling at me to catch the door for her (at least that’s what I’ve been told). Since I’m deaf, I had no idea she was coming up behind me. She ended up getting the bus driver’s attention and got on the bus.
At this point, this women we’ll call Karen poked me on my shoulder. She got my attention — asking me why I wasn’t holding the door for her. “Oh, you were calling? I’m sorry I didn’t hear you.” (I talk softly) Karen responded: “Well, maybe you should listen next time.” I apologized again and told Karen I was deaf. She started giggling, and I asked her what was so funny. “You, deaf? Nice joke, but if you were deaf how can you hear me right now?” I told her that I can lip read and hear slightly. She thought I was making up things for attention, and then proceeded to sit down two rows behind from where I was.
After about 30 minutes, my stop gets announced. I didn’t hear it, as I was distracted by something else on my phone. I know the driver pretty well, so he was trying to tell me it’s next stop. However, he couldn’t get my attention as everyone else where too loud.
Karen walks back up to me and starts talking to me, but again everyone was too loud for me to know what she was saying. She then proceeds to rip my hearing aid out pretty hard. I started bleeding from my ears and was in excruciating pain I yelled “What the f***, lady?”
Karen starts yelling at me, but I’m too distracted by my bleeding ears. Also, the high-pitched noise killed my ability to hear fully for a bit. Luckily, the bus driver pulls over and kick Karen out quickly. He then gives me some tissue to stop the bleeding.
I went home that day with one less hearing aid than usual, and extreme pain in my ear. The rest of that month, I decided to take the train instead even though it’s a bit more expensive.
I hope this story actually is allowed here and I hope no one here will ever be like this
