OMG FINALLY someone who agrees! As someone who uses the health care system for certain specialists for my health issues I HATE our health "care" it's totally and utterly ridiculous. Wait times just to get in the ER are ridiculous and misdiagnoses happens quite often..If I had the chance to move...

To each their own I guess...but if you were saying you're gonna use any type of social service they aren't going to be jumping for joy on letting you in the country ..just saying.

They don't want people moving here and then taking advantage of government programs like social assistance, or disabilty, etc. Not that people don't because I know a good amt f people who just have kids to get the "baby" bonuses you get from the govt which I think is riduculous. I know its...

Before I wore hearing aids I used to a version of this from phonak:) Looked more like the iSense Classic. I actually really liked it before they became useless because I couldn't hear enough what was going on outside of my ears so then got hearing aids with fm instead. Also in canada most...

With the many naida users I'm sure they'd agree with me when said that 3 days is definitely not enough time to trial that aid. I've used 3 different versions of the naida and each time I received a new one it took at least a week or two. Now obviously yes everyone is different and to each their...

I almost always take my hearing aids off or i wear just one when it's too noisy..and yes my ears definitely do ring even louder (if that was even possible..) than they usually do. I'm getting the new naida q for my left soon so i'm hoping that its better for noise than the core naida

I am finally getting my naida q issue fixed for my new naida. I'll finally soon be able to wear 2 hearing aids and have to carry around one set of batteries! woohoo

Yes, I agree everyone is different. I say deaf. If I saw hard of hearing people expect me to have more hearing than I actually do so I dropped that term rather quickly. As for the BAHA, I'm sure its like hearing aids and coochlear implants they need adjusting and upgrading just like other...

It will go off for the whole building lol there was a fire in an apt on one of the higher floors and the whole building had to evacuate. it was a pain in the rear end ..i was getting ready for work..or trying to at least lol my dog was shaking he HATES the noise..i dunno how he'd react to the...

My friend lives in the same city where this couple lives..i was like if there is a murder and the wife killed the husband then i'd be willing to bed it was this really po'd lady lolll

Finally got my apt building to install fire strobe and audible alarm and same with smoke alarm. Smoke alarms in my room and fire is by the front door. I feel a lot safer in case my mom isn't home now for drills and in case there is a real fire.

Even that is a bad idea..they mean water resistant as in you can wear them and get caught in the rain and sweating and stuff..maybe through a sprinkler..but i would never wear them actually being in a pool. I dunno how much experience you have with hearing aids but I've gone through a good few...

Aww man wish I had the $ to go! I totally forgot about mayfest! Darn

Yes glad you like them but when reading all the materials for the Q since I'm getting one myself no where did it say waterproof only water resistant...i would not by any means go swimming with your hearing aids on.

At the bank we ask people for their "john henry" I've heard people say john hancock though as well. Asked a few guy friend and at strip club ppl give 5s or more to dancers.

Hello fellow ottawa resident :)

Took my mom awhile to come to terms with my deafness. She now wants to learn ASL and she gets me to teach her new signs as I learn them :) My gma a few weeks ago made a funny statement.. Why don't i become an interpreter? I was like um I'm deaf..that wouldn't really work..I NEED the terp. lol...
