Unfortunately no one knows, Mag. It could have been anything from a
cold to an infection (I did have my tounsils out when I was 5) or any
ototoxic drug. It could even have been the fact that I had hearing loss
since I was born but no one picked up on it until then but that last
part is the least possible - I was talking normally and singing on tune
up till five - then all of a sudden, my voice went wonky and my singing
started to crack glasses.
