Of course you care. People are just mean sometimes. It's bad enough being left out of everything because you can't hear, nevermind the extra crap you get for your lifestyle choices. Here at AD, you have a good place to vent and nice people to share your feelings with. We have all, at some...

I don't know where he is from. He didn't look that muscular to me.

Perhaps it would be a good idea to only allow members to be able to access other members information instead of having it open for anyone to see.

He was bald not that bad looking but not that cute either.

Just wanted to share. Earlier today I was online and my yahoo messenger wanted to know if it was ok that someone called patrickdriscoll66 could im me. I never heard of this person so I decided to let him and try to find out who he is. He kept asking me how old I am, which was the big tip off...

I tried to drive right up to the window that had a person behind it to order, ignoring the speaker box. The girl looked a little uncomfortable when I told her I was deaf and wanted to order from here. It's less trouble for me to just go in and order, but wouldn't you say the speaker boxes...

You aren't alone--I can't think of a best feature for me, either.

Does anyone know who this Prophet is? This person has suddenly disappeared from this site.

Would you care to explain?

Alison, Thank You for the link. I will check the site out. Yesterday I had an appointment with the Mass Rehab Commission, and they gave me some information about learning sign language and perhaps finding some kind of work. I'm a little overwhelmed and nervous about starting something new but...

Thanks! I want to thank all of you for your good advice. I live in the southcoast area and I don't go to Boston much at all. Just want to let you guys know that I was born with a slight hearing loss that got worse over the years. I am 42 and I can't hear at all anymore. My mother didn't...

To Levonian: You really hit the nail on the head about how isolated I am. I really don't seem to fit in anywhere. I am shy but I think the only reason I am shy is because of my hearing loss. I will check out the books you recommended! Thanks so much! Dawn

I guess I forgot to mention that part! No, I am a lipreader and it has become increasingly difficult to do this well anymore.

I just want to say that I wish I wasn't so introverted. My hearing loss has made me the kind of person who spends so much time alone. It is so hard to communicate with other people and I wish that I could do something about this problem, but I really don't know what to do. Is anyone having...

Sometimes at dinner, my eleven year old son will talk to his father in a way that I can't understand what he is saying. It is very rude, and I always have to ask my husband to repeat what was said. I'm a lipreader. I think that mostly all children are rude like that. On the other hand, when...

I could hear when I was younger, too. I know what it's like to be able to hear everything and know what I'm missing. But I'm happy to be who I am and I wouldn't trade it for anything in the world.

there is only one correct answer to this question and that is YES I AM IN :wiggle: !!!

I'm married to a hearing man. I was brought up in the hearing world, and I don't know anyone who is deaf. (except for the people I am reading here.) I feel like I am a burden sometimes with my constant "what did you say?" or "what did that person say?" Sometimes, I can see the irritation on...

that's hilarious!!

I can speak and lipread. I can't sign, but I wish i could. I could hear well enough when I was younger and I was able to talk on the phone until about the age of 20. My hearing disappeared over the years and I have none left now.
