People who write long posts,please use PARAGRAPHS..they are your FRIEND here.Its unbelieveable the amount of posting that can go without spacing . :lol: That being said,can doctors that hire an interpreter just add that expense for tax write offs?If they can,they will recoup the loss and no...

And yet heres a copy of what you posted FIRST which tells me this is the empowering basis of your decision.. confused hey whats up, im in high school and i grew up mainstreamed with a ci. all my gfs have been hearing and i have never met a hot deaf girl according to my standards which are...

If youre female and shes female and thinks that way,then what is long term for her as compared to your ideals?Just date long enough until ya move on,or get married? I do not know if your M or F,Im assuming F from your user name,and if Im right,a bi F in the LONG RUN is going to give you some...

I agree with some of the others and say the term Robot,towards CI users,was/is meant to be a negative pun. Psycho-over-analysis is done by alot of people over something so simple,eh? :D

I had this happen to me many times,even before the BS nigerian scammers were well onto the scene.These days,if I use SIP relay or typing on the computer,I use the "operators instructions" and fill that out before making the call.I tell the relay not to ID them as a relay since most hearing...

If you switch your H/A to T,and get close to a computer or something electronic,do you hear a type of buzzing noise?All my hearing aids for years,different brands,have done this,since I always used the T switch to talk on telephones.Dont use it much anymore since my hearing has went down,but I...

HAHA,those stories are great! Fun to reflect back on them... Just another tidbit..several years ago,I knew the Audiologist at a School for the Deaf.Real nice lady,hard working etc...She told me someone broke into her office over a weekend and stole 50 hearing aids! 50!!! She said to...

Not sure if this is right place for this topic...but I had my H/A stolen,but it wasnt the intended item! I went to an Amusement Park years ago and they had alot of water rides.They had these open locker boxes outside the ride to put your shoes/sneakers/etc inside of so they wouldnt get wet...

2 1/2 days??? For real?Is this the norm? Thats a super short life span!

What happens if the devices you need to wear,after the CI surgery,breaks down,gets damaged or etc? How much are those to replace?Does insurance cover those? I would imagine theyre very expensive.

Make sure you take the battery out and leave the battery door opened...it might take a few times of drying,dont burn your hands with the hot air! Also,if the hearing aid has an open hole on the top,use your mouth as a straw and try to suck the water out.Sounds nasty but hey it works...
