For those of you who don't know - Marley is my dog. He ate one of my earmolds. It isn't a severe loss since it NEVER fit right. I went today to get a new impression but because of company issues I can't get it the same colour as my right mold - which is pink. So, I will have one that is purple...

Here is a pic of my new hearing aids! Now that I FINALLY have everything!

Hi All, I got my Safari's today and I LOVE them! The sound is much more natural than the Naida's and my sound discrimination is much better. The streamer is also awesome and the music with it is by far the best I have ever heard. It is so clear! I am very pleased! Jenny

Hey all, take a look! Stringing Together Stories Stringing Together Stories Stringing Together Stories is a project that was born from a series of seedling ideas . The ideas melded together to become what they are now, a multi-medium, resistance through art, education, activism, and...

Hey all, I am super excited! I am trying the new Oticon Chili in a few weeks!!!!! There is a foreseeable end to my Naida-Nightmare :giggle:

Well my friends, it has happened again. My hearing aid is possessed by some sort of hearing aid demon. I clicked my volume down button and away it went, zipping down 30dB's in record speed and then continuously beeping the "turned down all the way beep" until I turned them off. I put it back on...

Has anyone paid $260 or more for a set of earmolds for your hearing aids before?

What do you guys think? Would you buy them for your aids? For your kids aids (if I made ones for kids)?

We have all heard the stories of the Toronto Police Services denying interpreters, accusing Deaf people of "faking", interpreting attempts to communicate as violence, misunderstanding facial expressions that are a part of our grammar as anger, and countless other acts of audism, discrimination...

Hi all, I apologize if this is a re-post. On June 25th, 2010, a Deaf man named Emomotimi Azorbo was arrested at a G20 protest here in Toronto. He was an observer, and not involved in the protest. He was walking across the street to buy a bottle of water and was told to stop by the...

post number 1000 for me! Woot! Took me a few years, but I did it!

Has anyone else had the problem of one ear "dragging you down"? I seem to hear better without my left aid because all I hear is pure noise.

I need some examples of audism. Spefically ones that hearing youth may identify with. Go!

Our last thread was deleted, so whats the deal? AllDeaf meet up at Mayfest?:hyper::dance::dance2::popcorn::hyper:

I am going today to get new earmolds with a new audi. I am not leaving my audi - because I love her - but she is SO expensive for earmolds. I am saving about $80 by going to this other place. My audiologist knows I am "cheating" on her so I feel a bit better about that.:giggle: I will see how...

Hi ADers! I have been absent for a while and I want to explain why, and perhaps seek some support because I desperately in need of it right now! I have an unspecified anxiety disorder and while attempting to cope with a situation of abuse I asked to be put on anti-anxiety medications...

Guess what!!!! I used the phone today! With my hearing aids and the phone on MAX I was able to have a short conversation with my bestfriend! I decided to try after using *69 to see who last called and being able to understand that message. Mind you that message is predictable so it is hard to...

Does this assumed correlation bother anyone else to no end? Alicia and I had a bit of a conversation about it tonight since we both have strong oral skills and are constantly in situations where people "forget" we are Deaf or simply think we are exaggerating our hearing loss. I am curious...

To make a long story short I had a lot of pain with my left earmold and I was struggling to put it in. Turns out I had a blister IN my ear from the earmold running. It was like a deep blister so hard to see at first. The ENT used a needle to drain it because he was afraid of infection if I...
