Circle “The Magic World of Sounds and Words. Whisperers in the night
She always waits until late at night to start working.
The most optimal time is from two o'clock in the morning, when all the neighbors turn off their TVs and go to bed, until four o'clock in the morning, when the earliest birds start their roaring cars in the yard.
It has very sensitive microphones that pick up any extraneous noise - even the sneezing of neighbors behind the wall. Therefore, she needs absolute silence - a very scarce thing for a city like Baltimore.
Due to lack of time, she prepares very carefully for filming - she needs to record everything the first time, without takes, and do it twice: once in English, the second in Russian.
Therefore, during the day she prepares the text: so that later the words flow smoothly and without hesitation, she needs to learn everything.
In the evening, she sets up a studio in the living room: puts the camera and spotlights on tripods, connects microphones, curtains the windows: additional soundproofing never hurts.
Finally, you need to take care of yourself and put on makeup - bright to look impressive on camera, but at the same time not very pretentious, because she is being watched by very strict and biased spectators.
And now everything is ready. She turns on the microphones at full volume, looks into the camera and quietly begins to whisper:
Hello, my dear! Welcome to our ASMR therapy!..
It's hard to believe, but this home video, made literally on the knee, is watched by millions of viewers around the world. Moreover, the Russian woman Maria has become a real world star of a completely new genre, born by the Internet in a few years.
Almost like an orgasm, or a migraine in reverse
The acronym ASMR stands for "autonomous sensory meridian response" and sounds like a strict scientific concept, although in fact this definition explains almost nothing. This is a neologism that owes its appearance to the American artist Bob Ross, who back in 2008 opened his own video channel on YouTube, where he gave drawing lessons. The channel became unexpectedly popular - one of the artist’s first videos received seven million views.
Soon a forum of the artist’s fans arose on the Internet, many of whom - to the complete disappointment of Bob Ross - admitted that they were absolutely indifferent to painting, but were fascinated by the artist’s soft, quiet voice and the rustling sound of a brush or palette knife touching a palette or canvas. And for the sake of these sounds, they are ready to watch Bob Ross videos for hours on end.
“This is a very strange feeling in my head,” wrote a certain Mr.Bean487. - It's like a tingling sensation in the scalp, when it's like silver sparks are jumping through my brain... It's a little like an orgasm, but there's absolutely nothing sexy or erotic about it. Similar feelings arise during meditation, but this is something completely different...
“In general, it’s like a pleasant tingle when someone strokes your hair or runs your fingertips along your back,” wrote the French woman Gourgandise. “It’s like I’m falling into a trance from this pleasant feeling.” True, this only happens when I put on headphones...
Soon, scientists became interested in the effect, which millions of people described as “orgasm, but something completely different,” but they could not explain the nature of these sensations.
We only know so far that this syndrome exists - primarily because many people independently described exactly the same symptoms to us, wrote neurologist Stephen Novella from Yale University, who five years ago organized the world's first study of people experiencing ASMR effect. - It is also clear that not all people are capable of experiencing this effect, but the reason why some people experience this effect, while others remain completely indifferent to external stimuli, is unknown to us. Perhaps this syndrome is a kind of migraine in reverse... (Migraine is a syndrome of causeless headaches, the nature of which is not fully understood by scientists. - Ed.).
Well, while neurologists were racking their brains to explain why people get goosebumps from certain sounds and what these goosebumps actually are, Internet users came up with a name for a new phenomenon: Attention Induced Head Orgasm (AIHO) - that is, “head orgasm” induced attention." Or simply breingasm - that is, “brain orgasm.”
However, to the followers of Bob Ross, who began posting their videos on the Internet with the rustling and sounds of crumpling paper, this definition seemed incorrect - mainly because of the word “orgasm”.
This effect has nothing to do with eroticism or sexuality, says WhisperingLife. “I get a lot of letters of gratitude from people with sleep disorders, from overworked students, from military veterans who say that just listening to ASMR recordings gives them a feeling of comfort and calm that they cannot find anywhere else.
The whisperer with the pseudonym WhisperingLife is the first artist in the ASMR genre to start posting her videos on YouTube. And most of all, she tried to avoid any associations with virtual sex or phone sex. Therefore, she made her first videos with rustles and whispers without any video at all, with a black screen, so that listeners would close their eyes and completely indulge in only the auditory sensations.
That is why, among all the options for names for the tingling effect, the term “autonomous sensory meridional reaction” ultimately won - it sounds solid and scientific, and most importantly - no unnecessary associations.
The ASMR acronym itself was invented by web designer Jennifer Allen, who opened the first community on Facebook for fans and followers of WhisperingLife, which laid the basic canons of the new genre.
So, you can whisper some endearments into the microphone, you can rustle something or lightly scratch your nails on wood - such sounds are called triggers. In English, this word means a "trigger" that sets in motion some reaction or mechanical system. You can do both together.
But no more extraneous sounds. For example, one of the most disastrous WhisperingLife videos was a video with the sounds of wildlife and the rustle of rain. No rain or rustle of leaves! All fans of the genre who grew up in the city prefer to fall asleep to the rustling of plastic bags.
The success of WhisperingLife gave birth to thousands of imitators and imitators who, unlike the founder of the genre, were not shy about showing their faces to the viewer and appearing before the audience in the image of a nurse or a strict teacher.
Today, more than seven million ASMR videos are posted on YouTube, which find their audience in all countries of the world. In the past year alone, the number of YouTube searches for the acronym ASMR has more than tripled, and it continues to increase. And the most popular video on this topic has received more than 17 million views.
This video was created by Russian woman Maria Korneva from the American city of Baltimore, better known as Maria GentleWhispering. Now she is the most popular ASMR star in the world.
Maria
Maria Korneva was born in July 1986 in Lipetsk, into a very ordinary family: her mother worked as an architect, her father as a craftsman, and then as a director of a repair shop. She graduated from school and entered the Lipetsk Pedagogical University at the Faculty of Foreign Languages.
In her third year at university, she, like hundreds of other girls, decided to go to the USA for one year under the Work and Travel program - to see the world, learn English, and earn money.
Maria decided to stay in the USA. She got a job as a maid in a hotel in Baltimore, Maryland, and married an American friend. It was marriage, as all the friends were sure, that was the surest way to catch the bird of American happiness by the tail.
But one day she slipped on the tiled floor, fell and hurt her back - so much so that she could not even walk from the pain. Several days of bed rest cost her her job: the hotel owner put the Russian guest worker out on the street and hired another girl.
Then her American husband abandoned her.
Then I just lay at home with a nervous breakdown and saved myself from panic attacks and depression by looking for something on the Internet for relaxation,” Maria told reporters. - I listened to recordings of birdsong, did origami, and one day I saw a link to a WhisperingLife video. And as soon as I looked through it, I realized that I had found something of mine, dear and close. This is exactly the feeling I have experienced since childhood, but then it seemed to me that this was just my little secret. And I started watching these videos for several hours a day, they calmed me down like nothing else. After a couple of months, I realized that my attitude towards the world had changed: I saw warmth in it. And then I realized that I could do the same thing, I could share my warmth with other people.
Maria got a job in one of the clinics as a medical assistant, or rather an assistant administrator who prescribed various procedures to patients. And I realized that most of all, a soft, unhurried voice and smooth hand movements help people relax and calm down.
There are many triggers in the world, some like rustling or squeaking, others like whispering or some kind of indistinct sounds. Everyone triggers the ASMR effect differently. But all people are united by the fact that we all want care, comfort and personal attention, to be caressed as in childhood. We are all, in essence, children, and I make these videos so that people can remember their childhood feelings when love was shared with them completely unselfishly.
The need for love turned out to be the main deficiency of modern man - even those who, it seemed, in principle did not know what a deficiency was. American psychologists even came up with such a term - Attention Induced Euphoria. That is, a person can feel euphoria simply from the fact that another person is disinterestedly showing attention to him.
And the basis of Maria’s audience is precisely “average Americans” - these are people aged 35 to 45 years. The second largest age category is 25–35 years. That is, these are the same office shock workers, living in constant tension, trying to squeeze the maximum out of their careers. Home - office - home. Insomnia at night. And the only joy is the gentle whisper of a Russian woman from a laptop, who says what no emancipated American woman can say: “Don’t worry about anything, my dear, just relax. I’ll take care of you, I’ll iron your shirt, I’ll pick you up.” tie for you..."
Women also listen to Maria’s whispers with fascination: almost half of the channel’s subscribers - 49% - are representatives of the fair sex, who also lack care and affection from the people around them in their lives.
Maria also records videos in Russian - especially for her compatriots, but the popularity of ASMR in Russia cannot be compared with the popularity in the West. Moreover, today, following Maria’s example, many Russian ASMR artists are opening channels with English-language videos - especially for Western audiences.
By the way, as Maria herself says, there is no competition in this area: if you watch the video of only one ASMR artist, then after 3-4 months all the magic of perception will disappear. You need to change ASMR channels more often, take breaks every week or month. Every ASMR artist is interested in seeing the professional community grow.
In fact, a curious cultural phenomenon occurred before our eyes. For years, Russians dreamed that our pop musicians and film actors would be noticed in the West; for years, Russia spent huge sums on creating an attractive image of the country abroad. But the unknown emigrant Maria Korneva “shot”, broadcasting to the world the image of soft and heartfelt Russian femininity. It is Maria who today is the personification of Russian nature for millions of Americans. Now she is invited to radio and television, and an interview with “Russian GentleWhispering” is published by The Washington Post.
At the same time, there is not the slightest sign of star swagger in Maria. She still continues to work in a medical clinic, filming her videos at the home of her fiance Darryl Mooney, her most devoted fan. And dreaming that someday the fees that YouTube pays her will be enough to buy her own studio. In the meantime, she allows herself to spend her earnings on rare trips around Europe with her mother, older sister and young niece, who cannot get used to the fact that Masha can be recognized by enthusiastic fans on the street in any city in the world.
Dasha
Meanwhile, in Russia, a new generation of ASMR artists is growing up, dreaming of international success.
One of the most popular current Russian ASMR artists is Dasha Lozhkina from Yekaterinburg.
Daria grew up in one of the most respected families in Yekaterinburg: her father Nikolai Nikolaevich is a nationally known icon painter, chairman of the church art section of the Union of Artists of Yekaterinburg, her mother is an art critic.
Dasha also followed the artistic path - she graduated from the Ural Academy of Architecture and Art with a degree in architecture, and took part in several exhibitions of contemporary art.
At one of the exhibitions she met the young journalist Anton Lozhkin, founder and editor-in-chief of the Weburg news agency. The acquaintance grew into a romance, then there was a wedding, and in January 2015 the newlyweds had a son, Yegor.
Being a young mother is very difficult,” says Daria. - When Egorka was six months old, I felt that I was starting to get really depressed - both from constantly sitting at home and from the routine of home life. Then my husband advised me to make a video blog - for example, a channel for young mothers. But since there was already a lot of motherhood in my life, I decided to find a suitable topic for myself.
While still pregnant, Dasha came across several “whisper videos” on the Internet, which helped her take her mind off the eternal worry, calm down and fall asleep.
These videos and clips completely amazed me: before that I had never seen anything like this and had no idea that love and care could be conveyed through a camera in such a way - to the point of giving me goosebumps. And I decided to try to do the same.
The first videos shot by Daria bore the imprint of higher artistic education: the girl appeared to the audience in the guise of an art critic talking about various paintings. The debut was unsuccessful: the sound was recorded on a regular microphone of a regular video camera, the image was shaking.
But Daria and her husband decided not to give up. They invested modest family savings in the purchase of new equipment for their home studio - a used video camera, spotlights, but most importantly, they bought special binaural microphones - these are paired microphones that create a surround sound effect, especially when listening to the recording through powerful headphones. Often such microphones are mounted inside a “head” - a special mannequin that replicates the anatomical structure of the human head and auricle. Then, experts say, the recording even takes into account the natural distortion of sound waves that occurs in nature when sound waves “flow around” our faces.
It would seem like a small thing, but it is precisely such little things that allow a person to be completely immersed in a trance.
A chromakey was also purchased - a large green screen that allows you to insert any background into the image using electronic key projection. Let's say Daria is sitting in her kitchen against a green screen, fenced off from the whole world by towels hanging on ropes, and the viewer seems as if she is inside a spacious Arab palace.
But most importantly: Daria took into account Russian specifics. Our viewer is of little interest in creaks and rustles; our strong point is role-playing games. For example, to the hospital. Or to the registry office of a regular district clinic.
Just imagine: you come to the clinic, and the local doctor sees you - a young girl who doesn’t shout “there are many of you, but I’m alone,” no, on the contrary, she smiles sweetly and - oh, miracle! - apologizes for the fact that you waited for her for so long.
An appointment with a doctor is the most popular topic in Russian ASMR. Viewers who are not spoiled by the attention of domestic medicine are ready to listen for hours as attentive girls in white coats fill out outpatient cards or take anamnesis.
Role-playing games “at an appointment with a cosmetologist” are also equally popular - after all, in reality, ordinary Russian women often cannot afford to go to a cosmetologist and talk about some cream.
Today, Dasha has over 90 thousand subscribers on two channels - one in Russian, the other in English, which is very impressive for a young mother from Yekaterinburg, who is forced to combine creating videos with household chores.
Daria really leads a double life. During the day, she is a loving wife and mother - she cooks dinners, washes clothes, walks with her son Yegorka and goes shopping. At night, about once a week, she shoots a video in her makeshift studio in her bedroom, turning herself into an oriental beauty, a train conductor, or an ideal paramedic. And in the morning again pots, laundry, diapers.
The only thing that distinguishes her from all the other housewives in the yard is her extraordinary attentiveness to objects. You need to listen carefully to every new thing that comes into your field of vision - to find out how it sounds, responding to the soft touches of your nails and fingers.
But what distinguishes Dasha from all other ASMR artists is her extremely serious approach to business. Not long ago, she began collaborating with clinical psychologist Alexei Volnukhin, who has long been developing methods of mindfulness therapy.
In the closest translation from English, the term “mindfulness” means awareness or conscious attention, says Dr. Volnukhin. - The method is based on the property of neuroplasticity of the brain, which is capable of changing its activity when performing specific regular exercises. More simply, mindfulness is a way of training the brain, changing its predominant activity and, as a result, normalizing the functions of organs and systems of the human body.
According to Dr. Volnukhin, ASMR video can be used not only for entertainment, but also for treatment: they say, people who are susceptible to “goosebumps” will be able to absorb information useful for our brain through whispers, which is why it will finally come to its senses and begin to decide body problems.
Love
Today in Russia hundreds of bloggers work in the ASMR genre, each of whom is trying to find their own recipe for success. Most of them master medical specialties - from plastic surgeon to anesthesiologist and endocrinologist. Real doctors also join ASMR: for example, Svetlana Filina, an ophthalmologist from a regular district clinic in Voronezh, recorded a video for fun, in which she whisperedly gave advice on choosing lenses and frames for glasses. Within a few days, the video received over 60 thousand views. This is how Olga became an ASMR artist, although she was never able to repeat her success. But Olesya from St. Petersburg is working in civil professions - she was a clerk from the housing office, a passport officer from the passport office, a realtor, and an employee of the cadastral service.
ASMR artists have also appeared - men who, for some reason, most often become hairdressers and cosmetologists with a slight touch of blue. This spectacle, to be honest, is not for everyone. Perhaps the role of a father would be much more in demand on the RuNet. It’s just a pity that in our country with total fatherlessness, few young people know what it means to be a real father.
But the Russian ASMR artist attracts listeners not only with medicine and cosmetics.
Let’s talk about lomography today - this is a very interesting genre of film shooting, in which low-quality or defective frames are more valued, whispers 23-year-old Lyubov Sivertseva-Terletskaya. - And to begin with, I wanted to introduce you to the medium format camera “Diana F-plus”, from which Instagram’s signature format of square photos came...
Lyuba can talk endlessly about cameras. The same goes for board games - she keeps hundreds of boxes of games on the mezzanine at home.
I am Rocket Man! - says Lyuba. - I sing, compose my own music, take photographs, draw! But I truly cannot live without the Internet.
Since childhood, Lyubov Sivertseva has become accustomed to being in the halo of audience attention - she first appeared on stage at the age of four. At the age of six, her parents sent her to a music school, then to the Big Children's Choir named after V.S. Popova is the former Big Children's Choir of the Central Television and All-Union Radio of the USSR, where they took her seriously. And while all the normal girls were walking in the yard, Lyuba performed in the Kremlin, recorded songs for television, and went on tour.
It seemed that her entire career was predetermined. After graduating from music school, she entered the Moscow College of Improvisational Music at the pop-jazz vocal department, and began taking lessons from Gnesinka teachers.
And then the question arose of what to do next after graduating from college. She eventually became the vocalist of the cover band Beat Simple Band, which usually plays at weddings and corporate events. And she began writing songs for her own Princess project (by the way, the album has already been recorded and is available on the Internet), and while waiting for an investor willing to invest money in recording her album, she got a job as a waitress in the Receptor cafe on Tverskaya.
Well, she never received an investor, but she did meet manager Nikita, who later invited Lyuba to marry. It was Nikita who helped open her first video channel about jazz music and beauty.
I dreamed of starting my own channel since I was 14 years old, but I was always stopped by the fact that I did not have the necessary equipment,” says Lyuba. - But then Nikita told me: if you want to shoot, shoot with what you have. And I shot my first videos on an iPhone, lighting myself with a lamp from IKEA.
Then one of the fans sent her a video with a whisper.
I immediately understood what the trick was. Since childhood, I myself often got goosebumps when some girl in the class quietly read books in a whisper.
And Lyuba decided to talk about what she herself was interested in: about film photography, which today has become the lot of aesthetes, about board games or about the books she read.
It’s interesting that the new intelligent ASMR channel was noticed not only by her peers and teenagers, but also by older people who react very nervously to all sorts of frivolous videos.
Now I even have fans over 70 years old. They write me comments and give me advice.
And what is the older generation more interested in now - books or games?
I think they don't really care what I talk about. They all say that after five minutes of the story they stop paying attention to the details and start to fall asleep. They write to me that I have the best video for falling asleep. But I never thought that I would be telling bedtime stories to thousands of grandparents.

Creative pseudonym Maria Minerva heard not only in Europe, but also overseas. Seven years since the release of the debut album "Cabaret Cixous" Maria Yuur traded hazy lo-fi for flirty disco-pop, London for Los Angeles, became an environmentalist, human rights activist and producer. Yuur arrived in her native Estonia on the eve of the main festival of the Baltic States - Tallinn Music Week. The sounds met Maria during a break between her performances and family gatherings.
Sounds: You have changed a lot musically. Is this a consequence of external or internal factors?
Maria: I think that I changed first, and the music became a consequence of this. At the very beginning, I was very sincere and naive. I didn’t quite understand how the music business worked - I had never been in it and was in the underground. It rather could not be called a business in principle, because it did not bring in any money. I had no expectations and everything seemed so new. Then success came to me - it was a non-commercial success and a breakthrough for me personally. True, at the first concerts I felt a little nervous. Moving in space and traveling have certainly changed me. But, of course, I have become more cynical in this world where there are 15 minutes of fame rules. Today it is difficult to become durable, but I think I have learned to feel the spirit of the times.
Sounds: When listening to your records, especially the early albums, there is a feeling of alienation and wistful nostalgia.
Maria: Partially, the recording location affects the final result. I recorded all my albums far beyond the borders of my native country. "Cabaret Cixous" was recorded in the bedroom of a rented apartment in London. "Will Happiness Find Me?" I recorded it in Lisbon. Histrionic is an album from my New York period. My upcoming album is the first studio recording we will make in Hollywood. This is so far from home, from where I started, that it seems completely unreal. But in general my music is very different from me. In fact, I am a very social person - I host a radio show and continue to be active in social activities. I don’t want to seem mysterious and incomprehensible. In my case, art exists separately from me, it is not a detailed reflection of who I am. But when I create music, it's like I'm moving into a parallel space.
Sounds: You were announced at the Tallinn Music Week festival as a producer, writer and environmentalist. Does this mean that music has taken a back seat for you?
Maria: This is partly true. Music is a way for me to escape from the world, and activism keeps me connected to it. Life circumstances also played a role. When I came to the United States, I needed to earn a living, and I got a job at the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency). It was a difficult moment of transformation, because before that music was my only occupation. However, a new field of activity opened up new aspects of life for me.
Sounds: At the Creative Impact conference, organized as part of Tallinn Music Week, you became one of the speakers in the discussion on gender and racial equality. In many European countries, including Scandinavia, there are programs for female musicians that give them the opportunity to create music together without male pressure. Is inequality an issue in the US music scene?
Maria: In the indie music scene that I'm a part of, there have always been women. Everyone has their own opinion on this matter. Of course, there are snobby sound engineers who show special treatment, but... I've always talked about feminism. Not all the musicians I know think that this is correct, since by touching on the topic of gender inequality, you take a position in which you and your music begin to be assessed through the prism of your gender essence. The perception of some people is influenced not only by gender, but also by nationality. However, all voices must be heard. This should not depend on the person's status.
Sounds: You've probably read Hélène Cixous's essay "The Laughter of the Medusa." It says that "a woman should write about herself... from her body."
Maria: I read her work while studying in England, but Cixous was not the only one who influenced me. My first album Cabaret Cixous is a tribute to Helen, the group Cabaret Voltaire, as well as the café of the same name, where the avant-garde Dada movement was born. Now I'm trying to abstract myself from everything that inspired me during my student years. You always need to move on. But then I was very impressed by feminist theory.
Sounds: How feminine are you in music? There is a feeling that the Histrionic album is your personal manifesto of femininity.
Maria: 100%. The album's title, "Histrionic," is a reference to mental illness, typically affecting women who try to gain attention in any way they can. To some extent, this is a component of the feminine essence, and I decided to bring it to the surface. Everyone decides for themselves how to sound. I have always been interested in gender linguistics and women's language in particular. I'm also obsessed with pop music, which is usually considered a girls' genre. I love the idea of making music for women.
Sounds: In one of your interviews you said that you sublimate sexual energy in your music. This is true for many, but not everyone can admit it...
Maria: It's not strange that you express your libido through music. From time to time people talk to me about hypersexuality in my songs, but there is nothing like that. Everyone is free to express their opinions, as well as to choose the means to express their experiences. When you're in your 20s, you feel obsessed with boys, but as you get older, you become more self-centered. A woman's libido peaks in her 30s and 40s, and this is the time when you seek pleasure for yourself and are less trying to please others. So, this topic is still present in my work, but from a different perspective.

Maria and her daughter Irina live in Krasnodar. Maria has been disabled since childhood. When she was 5 years old, at a children's camp the girl fell ill with pneumonia, which turned into pneumonia. The disease caused complications in the ears and my hearing began to deteriorate.
“When I was little, my mother still heard well. She understood that they were addressing her, turned around, and somehow reacted. Over the last 15 years, my hearing has been declining, my mother’s hearing is getting worse and worse. The result of the last medical examination showed that the right ear does not hear at all, the left ear only 25 percent,” says daughter Irina.
The daughter is an ecologist by education and worked in a government agency that went bankrupt. Salaries were not paid for a year. Maybe they will compensate for something, she really hopes so. Now he works part-time in a private company, earning extra money where possible. Maria works as a PC operator in a statistical office.
Irina talks about Maria with great warmth and love: “Mom is a very reasonable, calm and kind person. She always gives more than she takes, always thinks about others first and then about herself. Previously, our grandparents were with us. Now that grandpa is gone and grandma is left alone and sick, mom often visits her and helps as much as she can.
My mother moved from a military town near Novosibirsk to Krasnodar after studying, so childhood friends and college friends are scattered across the country. There are, of course, girlfriends here, and she also communicates with work colleagues. But lately it has become less and less common. Not everyone knows about her problem. She doesn’t want to tell people about her hearing loss, and she is no longer able to communicate as before. Mom is embarrassed to look awkward in communication. Sometimes he cries and is very upset that he is losing his hearing. But he tries not to show it.
He loves our cat very much, he and he are great friends. He likes to draw pictures by colors, likes to walk around the city. But lately this also happens less often, due to hearing.”
Maria is disabled group II. About 6 years ago, she and her daughter purchased a hearing aid on their own, but by now it has worn out and requires a new one. Last year she was issued an IRP (individual rehabilitation program) card, and the social insurance fund offered her a hearing aid. It is good, powerful, but, unfortunately, with its help Maria cannot make out a single word: everything whistles, phonates, instead of words there is a cacophony of sounds. Even when a doctor is sitting next to her, it is not at all clear what she is saying.
The daughter said that they submitted documents to the bureau of medical and social examination with a request to choose another hearing aid, but received an answer that since January 1, 2016, there have been changes in the list of hearing aids and their choice has significantly decreased. Therefore, they offer a simple, behind-the-ear one. And according to the audiologist’s conclusion, due to complex hearing loss, Maria needs a digital high-tech multi-channel programmable device, which will be selected and configured individually.
The doctors' forecasts are encouraging: there is a good chance that with the help of a hearing aid, Maria can preserve the ability to hear, and, as a result, live and communicate normally with people. But the more she is without the device, the faster her hearing declines.
Unfortunately, mother and daughter cannot raise money to buy a hearing aid with a small salary and pension and are really hoping for help.
