Journal Entry [0015]

Really, when you think about it, the risks that come with the surgery really aren't sufficiently outweighed by the supposed benefits of having to listen to Omega's voice. There is no reason I can't function perfectly well as a member of the deaf community. I'm sure there even is a real community. It seems like things have settled out well enough to communicate this last week, and my helmet helps with speech-to-text. And with Epsilon injured and Omega clearly unfit to rear children, not to mention Sigma's new relationship and collegiate focus, it would be irresponsible of me to have the surgery at this time.

In the end it's illogical for me to take this risk now. Clearly the surgery must be cancelled.

Simple matter. No big deal at all.

I am Delta Ai and I'm deaf.

No big.
