Hey finally the new blog is here, hope you enjoy it.

My sister Yahan Gonzalez

My sister’s name is Yahan Gonzalez, she was born on 13/October/1996. 

She’s deaf, so she has this limitation, and here is the story about how she got over it.

Yahan was born deaf, our parents realized it because one day at a party a balloon exploded behind her and she didn’t notice it.

Our parents decided to bring her to the hospital to check what was going on.

The doctor says to my mom and dad that Yahan has this disability.

When she had 5 years old, our parents decided to bring her to Monterrey for put an implant in her head for help her to listen, I know that because my dad filmed it all, I like to see that videos. The implant cost like $40,000 pesos, it was very expensive and it was new at that moment. It works for a moment and then she starts to telling my mom that it makes her head hurts and it didn’t work very well, I mean she say that she kind of hear a little bit but she didn’t want to used anymore.

Yahan went to a normal school as a normal kid would, Scarlett our bigger sister, was in that school too, so she told me that teachers always call her because Yahan was crying and they didn’t know what to do. She told me that it was hard for her to understand all the classes because obviously teachers speak and she didn’t understand anything that she was saying and that's why she always gets bad ratings.

Someone told my mom about a school that is called ILAL for deaf people where they teach them sign language.

She learned it and then teach to us.

They give to her a very big book where is all the words in sign language.

Since I was little, I learn it to communicate with her also my dad, my mom and my brother and sister.

Now she is trying to teach to my niece, she is still so little, but she already learn how to say somethings.

She as a normal teenager had friends and play some sports like tennis, swimming and she also draw.

At tennis she was the champion multiple times as well as in swimming and she was awarded in drawing too.

Then she at the age of 18, she like to take pictures, she asks to my parents for a professional camera. Then she stared to like to take from her, she starts to like to be a model.

At 2017 she was at the “Orquesta Sinfonica Esperanza Azteca” she learned to sing in signs and she sang at one game from Santos and also sang at Mexico City.

She appears at one music video.

Then she gets in “Miss sorda México”, where she travels to Guadalajara to be in the competition.

Before going to the competition at Guadalajara, she takes a photoshoot at Astrid, Zermeño's wife, because she was sponsoring her. Astrid sponsored a native dress and the photographer.

When she travels, she only travelled with my mom and my aunt.

At the competition she meets a lot of people from other places, after some test for the girls, they decided the winner and the 2nd place.

Yahan got the second place.

Multimedios invited her to Vivalavi to share with everyone about her experience going to compete with other girls from other states.

She starts to teach at the school where she learns how to talk in sings when she was little, she was happy with that job, but there was a better job for her that is teach to Zermeño and Astrid sign language, so more people wanted to my sister teach to them signs.

1 year later (now) friends from my sister, wanted to go at the new competition that Yahan went last year, so they ask to my sister if she can help them giving them tips and how to walk at the runway, how to be with the judges, how to interact with the public, how to smile and be cool and more questions that they had to Yahan.

This year she glides a travel to Merida for a deaf 

congress, she is going to travel with friends and people from the congress.

Actually, she is working at DIF for a promotion publicity, she makes all the posters, because she is a designer.

It will be so amazing to make sing language an international language.

Some people always ask to me things like how do they buy things at the Oxxo or Seven Eleven and that stuff, how they drive. So, about how they bought things they almost all the time write in their phones and show it to the seller and for drive, they do, but is a little dangerous for them, because if are driving and then an ambulance or something like that want to pass and start to whistle, they aren’t going to heard it and there can happen an accident. So, that they can, they can.

So as my kind of conclusion I think is important to think that so many people that heard didn’t even get to these triumphs, she is a clear example that everyone can have a normal life having whatever disability.

It also shows us how everyone can get real whatever dream, no matter who you are or if you have a disability or you don’t, just follow your dreams and make it come true.
