SEE is an aid visually to help with auditory English. Lipreading is visual to aid in auditory English. There are other visual aids. Exactly, you begin early using English. My point for not starting out with ASL. SEE is not used that much in a fair amount. I don’t think it’s given a...

You sound difficult! lol, what a funny imagination. No, I was never kicked out. I don't believe my mom believes in kicking out children.

I am fine with it because life changes, and I am not the type to cling to something. If there are changes, then there are changes. There will always be changes. I am not sure it's healthy to live being afraid because of this. Maybe it won't happen during your lifetime. Who knows?

I am the type that accept changes. Some things die in a number of years, but then again it may not be like Latin Language.*shrug*

I believe God also leads you to cochlear implants. I wanted to find something that could help me, and I was lead to the cochlear implant. I almost disregarded it because one of my interpreter and tutor told me it was bad, but God knew better.

Became deaf from a fever overnight. Don't know what the illness was. No one knows! :(

Here is a website that has a good source of covering up many things about CI if you are interested in reading more. Can read about Meningitis Concerns. http://listen-up.org/implant.htm If you see: http://www.listen-up.org is a website all about hearing loss from every device and every...

I am sure most of the CI children who are happy are glad for having their parents make that decision for them. Everyone has proud parents. Every parent is different as such is yours. Don't forget that. ;)

CI surgery is a PROSTHETIC device.

Yes, that's what I am saying. For a long time, I was never able to hear the 's'. Therefore, I never pronounced it well. I didn't know. I never knew how it sounded. I had mom show me, but it was a mix when I got it right and when I didn't. 'S' was a strange ghost sound to me. After CI, I...

No, I answered that question. You have to watch for behavior and place them in therapy with hearing aids. If there is no sign of improvement even with Assistive Listening Devices or they are aquiring really slow in speech or poorly because they can't hear certain sounds, that's when they...

Magatsu, I have to correct you. A CI does is NOT rejected by the body. The few cases that we've had with CI is MIGRATION. May want to look that up to be more educated. Ask the CI company for a pamphlet of those cases. It's written in small words including the cases they've had with CI...

deafdyke, You're missing my point. I am not saying let's strive for perfection. I am not perfect myself, but all that helped me to focus on English to be able to go to go to college, write my papers without assistance besides editing. I agree with Tousi. If it creates confusing and not...

There are deaf people, but they choose to have a Deaf Community with ideas I find very silly. Deaf people are born to Enlgish-speaking parents in American (okay, this is standard. I am not talking about Chinese parents moving here with a deaf child or deaf parents of deaf children). Deaf...

LOL :devil:

By that time, I believe we'll have something else besides gas. It's about time they come up with something that does not damage the environment. I saw on tv once about a car that in the back, you can use your own cooking oil to start your car because vegetable oil is not that harmful to the...

I disagree that you need a college degree or a real life training experience to be an expert in something. My dad's an expert in plants. He didn't have any formal training, but when you talk to him, he knows so much about it like my mom said, it's like he has an encyclopedia in his brain. If...

I agree with you Tousi. We needed to have seen what you said about wrong information or vague info. No matter how much, sometimes the other party comes up with something else negative because they want to be right. It's hard, oh well.... Well, I don't know. I think this forum is doing...

CI now.

Hey, did you know that some Pizza Hut places have online ordering? You may want to check http://www.pizzahut.com for online ordering! It's not available in my area, but I put down to e-mail me when it's available. Maybe I should push them to have it for deaf and speech impaired people.
