Sounds like I have a lot to be thankful for, I can rave on for hours and never have to think about how I sound, pronunciation etc. I constantly get people commenting on how well I speak, even an ex TOD who tested my hearing said that if he hadnt run the test himself he would never have believed how low my hearing level was.
Jillio, can you give me some explanation as to why some deaf learn to speak well whilst others always struggle, I would assume the same learning technics are used in most cases. As you probably realise I am a nosey old bag who needs to know everything!!!!!
