Welcome to Hannah's Pickle Jar!
Hannah is a very healthy and happy 10 year old, who loves music and to laugh and play with her family. Hannah is also Deafblind. She was born with BiLateral Optic Nerve APLASIA (complete absence of optic nerves in both eyes) and UniLateral Atresia Microtia (missing her left ear). She is totally blind. She has a moderate hearing loss in her good ear. She has 2 implanted magnetic BAHA's (bone anchored hearing aids). which increase her hearing abilities. Doctors were unable to find a syndrome or genetic reason for this to happen. She is fortunate in that no other issues have come to light.
Hannah lives with her Dad, Mom and Brother in Lehigh Valley, PA.We started this web page with a few things in mind.

To introduce the world to our daughter Hannah and to inform and bring awareness to people about deafblindness and its impact on those around the deafblind child.
In addition, many of the costs associated with deafblindness are NOT covered by insurance, government, or the school system. WE have to cover many of these costs. So far, many generous people have "gifted" us financially. We thank those who have partnered with us .
I can see, and that is why I can be happy, in what you call the dark, but which to me is golden. I can see a God-made world, not a manmade world.
