Force? I don't think so. I never heard of doctor forcing CI or anything. Doctor didn't force, it's parents' denials.

Jake,, I have read all the postings and all of them (well, most of it) are good. As my brother said to me after I got my CI. i had nothing to lose,, if it fails, at least you tried. I have to admit that I am a part time CI wearer,, I wear it when I need to, such as talking to people. at work...

Not true,, ask any audi,, profound loss is having 90db loss or more... In many case, they may have NR at some frequency.

EXACTLY,, especially if caller ID doesn't match local numbers! Often relay calls comes from out of states.

I tried that on 2nd and 3rd call (with differnt operators),, they figured it out and hung up... as I said eariler, this business lost almost 2,000 dollars, so they don't trust relay at all. I wonder if it's local problem for I find it hard to believe (but it did happened) that two local...

It's my understanding that under HIPPA, we are allowed to get or see the report, no matter who paid for it.

Now you have me wondering. I will be getting an android next week and wonder about this. Does android have some kind of firewall or security protection?

Facebook, Pogo, Seattle Times, emails (several accounts,) Avon site, I think that about it,,,

AMEN! My church has 3 different services,,, the 8AM service is more of traditional format (pre 70s), the 10 30 service is more current, mostly mid age folks and family with young children. the 5pm service is,,, YOUNG CHRISTIAN music,, it's very popular among teens and college students and they...

You are so right about that! I live in mountainous area and you will find ALL sort of carriers here, depending on where they live or work. For example, my daughter,, she can have several choices at her home, but NOT at her job, only one choice. so she picked the one that works both at home and...
