De Jonge Family
The De Jonge family has two sons, Fynn (deaf) and Mats (hearing).
Experiences of this family
"It unexpectedly has resulted in beautiful moments."
"It's not one or the other."
"We've never been worried that he would be unhappy due to his handicap."
"Why would you be worried about it...?"
"Oh, there you are again?"
"They are unexpected, beautiful moments."
"You don't immediately have the CI's ready, right?"
"It's nice for him to see: they have it too!"
"It would also be nice if he can go to the same school as his brother."
"Keep open all options."
"Maybe they're focussing too much on signing and too little on hearing."
"It was really enjoyable and fun!"
"I think, also for in the future, that it provides great support."
"People find learning sign language actually really fun!"
"What's the sign for 'Fynn'?"
"Many moments throughout the day, he doesn't hear anything."
"He knows a lot of signs and is eager to help."
"Amazing how much he can hear with them."
