    Yay!! ASL rocks!!

    I got to sign with a Deaf man today at Wal-mart, and I actually initiated the conversation and he was really friendly and easy to sign with and it made me really happy. I hadn't talked to too many people in the Deaf community lately because I hadn't really found too many people, but it makes me...

    Broken HA's, not 1 but BOTH!!!!

    My HA's broke today!!!!!!!!!! That little plastic piece that your earmold and tubing attaches to is turning for some reason, and when I went to check the other one to see if it does that, it started doing it! I know it is messed up because it seems like it screws on, but it is stripped or...

    I have a question to those of you with a Sidekick . . .

    Are they all about the same? I need a new cell phone, and I use messaging a lot, need the internet, and stuff, and want to change providers because they are not sensitive to the fact that I wear HA's and need a HA compatible phone. Sooooo . . . . Are all Sidekicks about the same? I need one...

    My new HA's! (With a pic, I hope)

    I said I would post something about my hearing aids when I got them. I got them Friday, they are red, with red glitter earmolds, Unitron Element 8 + Easy T Power BTE's, and they are really awesome except for the fact that my audiologist wanted me to try the automatic volume control. I don't...

    I got my first hearing aid

    Until I receive my other hearing aids, I received one, from the Lions club and it is for my right ear. I find that it helps out tremendously, with the exception that I feel lop sided, lol. I can't wait to get my other ones, because if this works this well, then I know having 2 will work...

    As an adult, which would you choose?

    I am 23, almost 24, and am getting ready to get BTE hearing aids. I like to make a statement with my glasses, clothes, etc, and think it would be fun and unique to have colored hearing aids and earmolds. Custom ear plugs, hearing protection & in ear monitors :: Westone has some great earmold...

    Thank goodness for the ATLFA!

    Hey guys, I haven't been on much lately, but I am still trying to get hearing aids. My vocational rehab department pushed it off onto the Lions club, which I was happy that they were willing to help, but then I went to the audiologist yesterday and he informed me that they are only going to...

    So frustrated. . . .

    I am having a hard time getting help with financial assistance for HA's. I don't like having a hard time hearing (I know none of you do either). I mean I wish if I can hear I can hear and if I can't I can't, I don't like the middle man. Being in between. The doctor says it usually just...

    I just found out that I am HOH, and need some advice . . .

    Those of you who have seen my few posts know me as hearing, but now I have been officially diagnosed as hard of hearing, with a loss of 65 Db or however you say it. Now, my question is, if I get hearing aids, what is the best way to go about getting some kind of financial aid, because I...

    Question for any ASL teachers/Interpreters out there . . .

    Hi, I was just wondering if there are any other people like me out there who want to teach ASL/Deaf culture as well as be an interpreter, and if so, or if you do, what were your requirements for your area? I can't find any programs in Virginia, and I have been told by my college that I may have...

    I am in search of Deaf Awareness events in Hampton roads (Virginia)

    Does anyone on here know of any Deaf Awareness Days or events coming up in the Peninsula/Hampton Roads/Richmond area for Virginia?? I think they already had Deaf Awareness days in Busch Gardens and Kings Dominion, which really discouraged me because I thought they had those later in the year...

    To Implant or Not to Implant? That is my question . . .

    I was just curious to those of you that are members, what are your views on the whole Cochlear Implant issue? Back when I was doing a lot of research about 5 years ago, most Deaf people I came into contact with really opposed them. I am hearing, and have personally never had to go through this...
