Jclark and Joile you both look great! I feel old next to both of you! :giggle: Here is the latest one of me. :)

Hear again I do hope it gets better for you. We are here for you if you need us. Hugs!

Well this thread scared me. I have always been curious about CI's. I often wonder if CI's would help me hear better than my hearing aids do. There is one thing I have never been able to do and that is talk on a telephone. When I am on the telephone I can hear the other person's voice but I...

I think I did try and toss my hearing aids when I was younger (like 12 or so), I hated being different. And I was ready to toss my digital aids too last year when my audi asked me to try them out, boy did I hate those! :lol: I have worn my analogs since I was 5 so I am used to and...

I don't have CI's but I have two hearing aids and I have had tinnitus since I was 18. I still remember the day it started, I was in the kitchen and all of a sudden I could hear these noises, ringing noises in both ears. I have learned to ignore and not focus on those noises or else they would...

How adorable is she!!!! Look at that sweet baby smile!

I am so sorry hear again. Many hugs for you and I will be keeping you in my thoughts.

I would pay off my mortgage Take a great vacation with my family Put a large sum into investments for the future (retirement, my daughters college...) Give a small portion to my Mom and sisters

What a hard time you must be having Moon Child, I am sorry. I know how hard it is to be at large family gatherings and have everyone laughing and talking around you while you just sit there smiling blankly and not being able to follow the conversation and no one seems to care that you are not...

You are not alone Moon Child, I am the same way. I wear 2 hearing aids and have never learned sign or been around any hoh or deaf people. Besides my family I have very little friends. I am extremely shy. I think you might consider a community college class in signing and take it from...

:laugh2: That was funny!

I have three girls ages 11, 7, and 3. I thought I was finished after I had my first two girls, but then surprise surprise I got pregnant with my third girl. My husband got the big V after that so no more kids for us.:lol:

I would be so happy if the movie theaters would just get it together and caption the darn movies! What are they waiting for? How hard can it be? sigh...

I grew up in a regular hearing environment. Nothing special was done for me at my schools. I attended regular public schools and was in regular classrooms with hearing students. I became an expert lipreader and my speech is perfect so I blended in easily. At home my parents and two...

Welcome! Your post sounds just like me when I was back in High school, a long long time ago :giggle: I didn't have a 501 plan or any type of fm system when I was in school. I relied 100% on my lipreading. I still do actually. Most of my teachers would forget after a while that I was Hoh...

I am thinking that I should get off my computer and start dinner before my little ones revolt!:lol:

Congratulations! Now drive safely... :)

Happy Birthday!!!!

My husband and I got a nice sized refund from both the Fed and State. We are taking our girls to Disneyland once school lets out!

I know what you mean. Every time I walk into a new class at my college my professors are simply amazed that I am hard of hearing. I can hear somewhat with my hearing aids so I guess I shouldn't call myself deaf. Anyhow I sometimes have to talk to my professors when they want the class...
