Very sorry to hear about your cousin, I'm sure she is at peace now

It takes from a few days to a few weeks, depends on the company and your audi. The whistling, it might be because your mold is loose, mine whistled a lot too until I got a new mold. Try that, it might help.

Most BTE's have t-coil, and its usually the middle switch. It makes a HUGE difference, with both the phone AND FM. Your audi might give you the stuff, I'm not entirely sure. I do remember getting SOME things for my sumo ha but not everything like the rubber bulb, had to buy that a few years...

For advice, as a college student, I would so strongly suggest not hiding it from your classmates when you get the HA's. If they ask questions, anwser them, mostly innocent questions. Don't forget to take them out before you pass out from studying all night. I did that once, and the next morning...

I had gotten my name sign from my ASL teacher. He too, told us that we should only get our name signs from deaf people. I however, gave a few of my best friends name signs because I was tired of fingerspelling "K-E-N-D-R-A" or "M-A-T-T-H-E-W" over and over again. My sign name is the letter K...

Oh my god. Go to her office and make an appointment. One of my friends has a learning disablity and Mr. Hone did the same with her. I made her go to the office and she got an appointment right then and there. Geesh some people. You're at CU? Gah! I dispise CU. When they came to my high school...

Why did she have to argue? Do you not have a special needs counsellor? My college paid for my FM system through my OSAP. I'm trying to wrap my mind around you situation, and why it's a hard time for you to get an FM system....

I have the sumo in my right ear. I will say, I remember it being programmed and it actually took the audiologist about an hour and a half to get it to a point where I could handle the sounds. It was first set for volume 2, and its now at 3. I've had the hearing aid for about 3 years now, it's a...

Thought I'd jump on the bandwagon once I realized no one has seen what I look like yet!

I've always wanted to go to the top of the CN Tower, last summer, my then boyfriend went up to the top and he said it was amazing. I was so jealous. Hoping this summer I can go there with some friends and go to the top! I love heights!!!!

Happy Birthday!! :) Hope you have a great day!

Well its the day after, I actually went to a party at my cousins, did NOT do weed, one of my friends did and holy crap she was really out of it. Everyone got drunk, my cousin threatened these people who weren't invited with a bat, and several people got high. Good day over all, now time to...

Yes, its the animated Blue's Clues that have the ASL. I remember, Thank you, Book, Help, Smart, Think(although I'm not sure if he was just using it because it's an obvious sign). Can't remember any others. But there is a movie of Blue's Clues with ASL in it... Here it is on Amazon.. Blue's...

It's hard to learn new languages. I took eight years of french, none of it got into my head. And my signing is very rusty. I have to point out of how people were raised. If deaf children were born into a hearing family, that hearing family has two choices. Raise the child vocally or using ASL...

Very true, some people aren't even aware that there are interpreters for the deaf, they just assume that Deaf people use ASL with deaf people and pen and paper with hearing people. It's very interesting to learn how some people have been raised to view the world, both deaf and hearing. Most...
