You need to find out if they have any deaf riding groups out were you live... they do have one here. i'm not a part of it but have seen them at events. I see your from CO.. I was there in 08 passing thru from Sturgis I went to the Garden of Gods and Pikes Peak. Awsome.

Don't take it personal. That is there problem.. They may have problems reading and spelling. I know alot of people like this and for that fact they won't text. They might be hiding ther own problems.

wtg Zee. Ive been wondering how you have been doing. When they turned it on did the ringing in your ear go away?

Blank Canvas. I ride too. Most of my riding buddies are girls. When we ride i usually stay in the middle of the pack. That way they feel like thay are protecting me :) Also when you ride you use hand signals mostly. Very seldom do I lead when in a pack unless it is raining because I have...

Ron, I know what you mean about not knowing what is available. I didn't go to a ent doctor from 1990 until last year and only went then for proof of my hearing loss for a court case. Do to a Police Officer thinking I'm drunk because of my speech although my licenses said I'm hearing impaired...

Great Post Ron...I was implanted last Tuesday. I did alot of searching on the web before I made my decision for the implant that is how I came across this website. it will be a few weeks before i'm turned on, I don't think i will be disappointed with the outcome...

I think it is neat... alot of the young are going with those big hoops anyway. I wouldn't want it for myself... but i like the idea

Also I think the Man is now a sheriff because they have different qualifications and he was able to do that.

Try doing a Google Search. Seems like i have seen some articles in the past on law enforcement and hard of hearing. I think i read that one officer they wouldn't let wear there hearing aide in the academy and you had to hear certain sounds... can't remember all that i read. but I'm sure if you...

Tomorrow is supposed to be my implant date. and we got about 15 inches of snow yesterday. I'm worried now that they are gonna cancel my operation. And if they do then everything is gonna change for me... My out of pocket expense is paid in full for the rest of this year and if i have to wait...

Very interesting.... ( Captions work great for me) I have no experience with loops or fm processors or anything like that because i haven't worn hearing aides in 25 years. Does the implant come with the cables or is that something I'm gonna need to order separate... So far all I have gotten is...
