My husband and I went to audiologist last few years ago. He said I can't get a digital because of my hearing level. I was alike that's bullshit. I never hear of it. Until I found AllDeaf's hearing aids forum to discuss. I found it about analog and digital will help for hearing loss with profound. That's so interesting and new to me. I want to figure it how to work it out about digital and analog is the best for profound. I don't want to waste the money to buy HA or CI. I need to make a decide. My husband is hearing. He don't care if I am deaf. He said, "It up to you if you want to get a new HA or CI. I don't care if you are still deaf no matter what. I still love you. I will always support you for wish".

Thats very kind of him. He obviously respects your wishes and needs as a deaf person. I wish more hearing would respect us like your husband respect you. I think if they shown us some more respect it might change some of our thoughts about them.
I am glad hearing aids have worked for you, thats wonderful. I myself flushed the one's I had down the toliet many, many years ago in grade school when I had hearing aids and oralism forced on me. If I ever go back to having them again I suspect I will have them off most of the time when I am wearing them and only turn them on in emergencies or when listening to music.
