That's awesom:) Glad that he has a good team of people helping him at school. And maybe this other deaf girl can help him with the CI. Getting to know more about it and practicing? Don't know when she was implanted..but if it was later maybe she could help him out with listening with the CI and...

My mom always asks me what I've learned that day, and I show her and she'll do some of the signs and laugh at the ones that are the raunchy ones. My bf is not AS interested to learn but I always show him signs anyway and he goes through them with me :)

I am no longer IN school. But with my job it requires me to do courses every so often that are required for my position. Also if I want to have more courses for a better position and better pay I can do those too.

I'm currently a bank teller but am training to be a personal banker. So I'll be dealing with mutual funds, mortgages, opening accts, personal loans, line of credit, and visas mostly.

I don't mind having to do the surgery to get rid of all the extra tissue build up but I won't get a hysterectomy to get rid of the pain altogether. I know I can have issues getting pregnant but I don't want to give up on that chance altogether. I'm in SO much pain right now that it's...

As a teen

Anyone else with endometriosis? If yes...what do you do for it? I got dx'd this when I had appendicitis and I'm in pain ALL the time. I am still waiting to see a specialist and I've been told I most likely need surgery to get rid of all the tissue build up as well. At least they can use my...

I don't think it's fair to say that it will NOT last. You don't know the OP's son. Not saying it will be easy to utilize the CI to the best it can give him and go to speech therapy etc but Deaf people can achieve it. I have a friend who went through speech therapy and she is profoundly deaf and...

Never been called a spoiled brat by a hearing person. I feel the amount of "hearing bashing" threads is getting a lil ridiculous lately. I get there are many hearing people who are very ignorant towards us but not ALL hearing people are like that. Also you obviously don't get out much if you...

I have a alarm clock from Sonic Alert and I LOVE IT! Works well I NEVER sleep through it and it doesn't wake up anyone else cept my dog who sleeps with me. My mom never wakes up from the vibration even though her bedroom is right beside mine. It can make noise or vibrate or do both at the same...

In my opinion you should still keep up with the ASL but if he wants to reMAP the CI and give it a try why not. I think your childs wants should be taken in to consideration. Especially because he's requesting it. I remember being in high school and it wasn't easy at all. I had to fight with my...

Not this month since I wouldn't be able to afford it since they're $95 each and I have other expenses ...

I remember reading that someone else had otosclerosis but the MRI or CT showed that the cochlea on the inside was ok so that she was ok to go ahead with the CI op
