UTI's... Lots of water and cranberry juice, like you said. If yeast infections seem to be a persistent problem, try incorporating some yogurt into your daily diet. Whenever I need to go on a course of antibiotics I stock up on yogurt.

My folks discovered I was deaf at 18 months, but I was promptly outfitted with hearing aids and had intensive speech/audiology training so I speak well with a minor inflection of that deaf accent. Now my situation's been reversed as I now have a ci so I can hear well but can't speak as well...

No one with a degree of hearing loss can hear like a hearing person. Nerve damage affects how that information is relayed to your brain. It is not a matter of turning up the volume, unfortunately. Any audiologist worth his degree will tell you that. Anyhoo, there are new models of CI...

Sometimes just removing the nest doesn't work. There was a nest in a high traffic area at my folks' business. My father noticed the nest, didn't think it was a good place for a nest and removed it. The bird built another one in the same spot. He removed it again. She then threw together a...

Would you like that supersized?

It's not very polite of me to say this but I will anyway: This thread gave me a good chuckle. :lol:

Aww! Your new addition's picture made me coo. Adorable doesn't even begin to describe him. Did you settle on a name?

Dry/canned really makes no difference in longevity as long as it is a healthy diet. I rarely give my cats canned, when I do it is as a treat. (And usually one of them inhales it so quickly he winds up vomiting it back up. I've caught him trying to eat it again after that happens!) Dry is...

Such a cute face. Did you enjoy the big apple?

I most certaintly do not. :)

Do you know if they plan on showing any more movies at that theater? I was so bummed when I read an article in the newspaper THE DAY AFTER.

Congratulations! I just started a new job myself a couple weeks back and I must say although it may be difficult to bite your tongue and resign w/out a a dig, 'tis better to show decorum and not burn bridges. Good luck at the new job and wear that orange apron with pride!

Hmm the chances that we've seen each other on campus are probably very likely... PM me if u want.

Not a Rochestarian, but I was a student out there waaaaaay back in the day. (98)

Sedona and Cliffy. I'd post pics but I don't know how. :|

I think I'll

:lol: If that event was covered by pay per view tv, they'd make a killing!

I'm glad you're pleased with your results! I'd love to hear about it sometime if you felt like sharing. :)

I think for me it was the right decision. I am able to do things I was unable to do before. I can actually HEAR on the phone now. I'd attempted to do it before with hearing aids and could barely make out the difference between no and yes. I'm not brave enough yet to try talking on the phone...

My folks believed in total communication for the early part of my life. They learned PSE, enrolled me in a preschool deaf/hoh program, and I had intensive speech therapy as frequently as 5 days a week for the first few years of my life. Over time I just naturally elected to speak rather than...
