What is wrong with me? I got my first ever hearing aid today and I love it, I mean it's absolutely wonderful. But it makes me appreciate the relative silence I've grown used to. I now have a moderate hearing loss in both ears which is progressive (Meniere's). Every time I have an attack...

Oh no this is not "hogwash"! As my hearing loss progresses I can hear tone of voice less and less! I usually end up offending people because I ask if they're upset because I can't read their facial expressions and then they get mad and say "why do you think I'm upset??!". It's strange listening...

Yeah that's why I'm thinking BTEs might be the way to go for the next one. Since my loss is progressive within a couple years the tiny aids won't help a whole lot. Thanks!! :dance2:

I don't! Dogs rely so much on the sense of smell that I've known people who never knew their dog was blind until the dog's vet checked the dog's eyes. The dogs navigate just fine. I even know of someone whose guide dog was mostly blind but continued to guide them; the only reason the dog's...

She is LUCKY to be alive!! Thank goodness she was on a riding mower and not pushing one. And she is also lucky that the mower landed right side up!!!

OK I'm over the initial shock. I'd forgotten what summer sounded like ~ all the birds, locusts, the sound of the wind from an open window, the sound of people talking across a parking lot. This is amazing. I kept taking the aid out and then putting it back in to compare LOL In a strange way...

Is that what the world sounds like?????????????? I ended up with a trial of an ITC aid because my ear canal is too small for an CIC or mini canal but OH MY GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What is that??????????? Everything is so freaking loud!!!!!!!!!!! How can people stand that??????????? :) I'm so...

Wolf is now sneaking into someone's yard next to the forest and swimming in the pool because it's 95 freaking degrees outside. The wolf is now very mellow and won't chase anyone.

If Im not a wolf Id be a junebug and annoy everyone all the time. I hate junebugs especially when they fly in my hair and get stuck ew!

timber wolf is what Id be they are beautiful!

Is anyone near Cincinnati? I'm Haylee. I'm HOH and learning ASL and I don't have anyone to talk to who can use ASL! I have to talk to myself! :)

GOOD there aren't many handsome younger guys for me to stare at on TV right now :)

That is so sad and wrong! I agree those animals deserve loving homes. The potential home might have to be a certain way, like to place a blind cat in a home with dogs ready to pounce wouldn't be fair, but there are so many homes where these animals could be very happy!! My dog Sadie lived to...

:slap: :mad: :liar: :bsflag: That is what I am feeling right now LOL :) They didn't get in whatever the heck it is they were supposed to from wherever it is they ordered it from and I didn't get my HA today. She said well probably tomorrow, they'll call me. Great. I'm so annoyed...

That is SO so scary. I am amazed they are all still alive!!! That is also why I'm too afraid to fly!! I hope they are all doing well and have people to be with while they're recovering from this!

My friend told me the same thing. He said he could hardly understand several of the operators on IP Relay.

My friend hung up on relay once because he thought it was a call from a prison LOL!! :nono:

Hey everyone thank you for the welcome! I am so slow in answering anyone LOL I've been learning ASL off and on for about seven months and now I'm learning it as quickly as I can! I also found a class nearby ~ even if I already know what they teach I can use the practice and it would be so...
