Suzy Degazon's journey from the English countryside to Catalina Island is marked by resilience against the backdrop of an eating disorder and subsequent hearing loss. Throughout her youth, she embraced her passion for cooking and baking, aspiring to be a pastry chef. However, her struggle with anorexia led to significant physical damage, including hearing loss diagnosed only when applying for a visa. Despite these challenges, Degazon moved to California, where she now teaches scuba diving, passionately sharing the wonders of the underwater world while living each day to its fullest.
Degazon's journey, shaped by her experiences with eating disorders and deafness, highlights the resilience and determination to embrace life and inspire others.
'But starving myself for ten years also caused irreversible damage to my body, including to my inner ear and auditory nerve,' Degazon reflected thoughtfully.
'Having anorexia was really bad, and so I always want to be alive,' Degazon expressed, revealing her profound desire to live life to the fullest.
'I looked like a walking stick insect... But I was going to see the world. And I did,' Degazon remarked, showcasing her adventurous spirit.
