whatdidyousay! Your words touched me. Death is difficult no matter what you do to prepare and no matter how much you think you've reached the Kubler-Ross acceptance phase. Oh, gosh, your Rabbi sounds like an unethical person. When my father died about six months before your mom died, we...

CC was mandated years ago as stated. I find most of them pretty atrociously done. There are some channels that are okay and with minimal issues. But there are way too many other shows where the closed caption looks like a jumble of letters on the screen (it is). Our local cable company always...

Then the hearing person who doesn't know anything in ASL but some word signs and, "Store me go," takes a swing and totally misses. I don't have the brain power to learn what you know. You go, AlleyCat, and all who use ASL.

It's a little different from a HA for moi, BleedingPurist. It's bigger and bulkier and I have no space between the lump you can't see (other than the red) and my ear. When I attempted to wear the CI as a BTE, the woman where I get my glasses made bent the arm over the CI and kept it covered in...

HOH-ME (Thanks for looking at the post): If I were in your shoes, I'd say it looks like an infection. It's not. I've worn glasses since 1966 or 67. As a young woman, I switched to contacts. Then had other surgery and wore one contact making me have mono-vision (no glasses and I could see...

The threads in this forum are really interesting these days. Melissa, the woman at Lloyd's said if my analog couldn't be fixed they could get something similar. Analog is old technology and can be reproduced in something this small if we're willing to pay for the price. But you've also...

Okay. I took a shot at it and ASL is beyond me unless it's simple.

Bad photos in living color BleedingPurist: You and HOH-ME were going to be notified when the pics were posted (they just arrived). You can see where the red is from my glasses and maybe see the lump it has to go over that runs from the implant (you can't see the mass unless I shave my hair a...

I am not a poet. I've written rhymes, haikus, actually was able to grab some lovely interactions with my mother who was dying from lung cancer* and turn some of her quotes into poems. I'd point to the web where one and only one has been picked up by various sites but it would toss any form of...

General post for folks: This is what I found in the article and I'm not responsible for their typos (only my own): Update: The Duggars have thrown massive amounts of money to repeal this law so business owners and land lords can evict and fire people solely over gender idenity and sexual...

HOH-ME: That's what I needed to know. Arghhh ... that's why I'm here - no answer from the doctor for too, too long and you figure it out (that's a frustrated compliment to you). I'm still going to see if the electrodes are long enough to move. That will come when I dissect my med. records and...

Geesh, another death in "our" (spouse and myself) age bracket. This stuff is spooky to me now. Joe Cocker was a musician (rocker) and he played at Woodstock. There's more on the internet and my spouse's brain (who went to the Woodstock). I was not into his music but he was an icon to many.

MelissaWatt: Glad you're still amongst us. 1. I'm glad I made it through the analog years rather than digital. 2. I kept baggies of earmolds that were a joke (smashed when sent to me, too big, too small, and more 3. A bag of analogs. Happy Holidays.

VA Bowbender: I'm sorry about what's happening to you. If I may, please start keeping a folder of the date, the event, and who was involved. You could be xferred out and with your tracking, at least you'll be able to show what happened. I thought the vibrator on your phone or pager would...

We are :ty:!!!

But this is why. There's always a hook to bring us to view the story then the dopey ending. If marriage is not recognized in a State, they will not have the process for divorce. My guess is divorce could occur if they went back to the State where they married. caz12: It's not draconian cuz...

Happy Holidays to all and to all a good evening. Peace, please.

What has been happening for decades is American-based companies stash profits and/or cash overseas so they won't be taxed on it. It's called a loophole. This administration is finally attempting to so something about it... if what we're reading is true, that is and that's in doubt. We have US...

I'm making a sincere effort to understand this but I'm a bit confused. Lets do this in order. 1. SSI (vs SSDI) is for those who make and have very little money. If you make over that allotted and pre-determined amount, yes, you can be made to pay it back. 2. I know that SSDI has a set limit...

What specifically do you need? It is a very open-ended question. (Nice smile on your face :) .)
