In the face of a challenging start to 2025, Minnesota photographer Beth Leipholtz shares a humorous video of her 5-year-old son, Cooper, who is profoundly deaf due to Waardenburg syndrome. Cooper, adeptly using his cochlear implants, playfully turns off his hearing to take a 'break,' encapsulating a light-hearted view on his condition. This playful interaction between mother and son not only highlights their bilingual upbringing in English and ASL but offers a unique perspective on embracing one's circumstances with humor.
