    About Parents?

    Would you people like to look at my personal facebook to see I'm not a phony? I've got post about hearing and hearing aids as far back as June?! I can't fake that.

    About Parents?

    I was told that she would use the FM system in school settings. I was also told it would be her "bread and butter" and that they ordered them for every child with hearing loss. I'm really getting confused, before reading all the information on here I really thought I had a handle on everything...

    I'm really not understanding what you are saying? Could you explain? How in the world am I making a fool of myself?

    About Parents?

    Who said anything about online diagnosis? We see her audiologist regularly. There is a discrepency between the ABR and the behavioral test so the professionals that we are seeing (and everything I've read in the paperwork and testing) and been told is that it's somewhere between mild-moderate.

    We already have an FM! We haven't used it yet though. We only got her hearing aids (she has been using "loaner" hearing aids from our local children's hospital) and the FM on Monday. We haven't realy been anywhere but our home in the past few days but I'm excited to get the chance to use it!

    If the need presents itself to use ASL I would be happy to use it. For now (even before she was aided) her speech is fine with no delays. She enjoys using words and hears (not "perfect") but well without the hearing aids. She now (with bilateral aids) passes audiograms with flying colors. I...

    This seems to be getting confusing. I feel like I'm not being understood, so I will explain. Early Intervention program. They set you up with services for children. They are service coordinators. They set up services, they do not actually give the child the services. Through the...

    I saw this one but it doesn't specify between high and low frequencies. Her low frequencies normal at this point. Thank you though. I saw online the school she is recieving intervention though has simulator tapes, so I'm going to ask about it at her next home visit on Monday.

    She recieves early intervention from the already. What I said was that it's not in a classroom setting until 3 years old. Right now she recieves auditory-verbal therapy provided in our home from the . The early intervention program like I said before, feels that the home is the best...

    About Parents?

    Does anyone know the simulated hearing loss website? I've been dying to understand more of exactly what her hearing loss is like? Everything I've read would categorize her as mild-moderate. Another quick question. She had an ABR which showed moderate high tone loss only, but the behavioral...

    About Parents?

    I would love her to learn ASL but right now we are going through the . She won't get school services until 3 years old (from birth to 3 they think at home is the "natural learning envoirnment") and then 3+ she'll get school services. Since (even with the hearing loss) she does not have a...

    I guess you don't get too many hearing parents around here? I'm not sure what is suspicious about my post but if me being here makes anyone uncomfortable I am willing to let the door hit me in the rear. I am not sure that this is the place for me anyways seeing as my daughter only has...

    "Perfect" was the wrong word but I "good enough" is to. I want to be way more than good enough. I want to do my personal best at parenting and that's what I intend to do. The whole hearing/deaf/HOH community is completely new to me and would like to learn as much as possible in order to...
