I almost died! How rude!
I was given more homework practice for similar oral testing that I did yesterday. It's about paying attention to words. I did ask about my speech strategies and Audie said I'm on ACE. I wonder how this will help me?

Thank you all for being a part of this journey with me!

Yes this is whats getting to me too, everyone expects you to pus plugged in, switched on and suddenly have perfectly normal hearing. I feel like making a CD of the instructions to play for dumb idiots!!!!!......I am so sick of explaining over and over that "No I cant hear without lipreading yet, Yes I can hear voices and multiple other noises, No I can use the phone yet" then almost screaming "will you just leave me alone!!!!!"
