    The Walking Dead

    I need to watch it again tonight .. I watched it on my DVR last night but got interrupted so didn't pay close attention. The ending with Morgan walking at that particular time totally made my stomach drop though. He's probably very confused and Rick is probably feeling shame although he...

    Common Experience?

    I have just found in the world of people in general, there are crappy ones/good ones, compassionate ones, and selfish ones. If someone wants to be in my life and displays good character, it's all good! People are people. I hate discrimination. So silly and small minded. I couldn't...

    Common Experience?

    Or just find a compassionate human being. Hearing or not. My late husband was hearing and although he admitted later that my (lack thereof) hearing was something he thought about, he was super compassionate, helped with interpretation, was patient, and more. It's about finding someone of...

    Common Experience?

    That's super disappointing that you have had women that haven't wanted to compromise in the least bit. Even outside of a hearing loss, there is always some sort of compromise that happens because people are all different in some form or another. Especially sad that you have been told that the...

    From Oticon Epoq to Chili to Phonak Bolero SP

    Had my appointment and audi said the Naidas would be equivalent to the aid I already tried, the Phonak Bolero SP. She said she did try making the Chili more analog and it still wasn't working for me. So, we are going back to the speaker closer to the ear drum. It's an SP speaker in the mold...

    I can't take it anymore

    I guess where I was coming from is that we are all in the same boat and should have real understanding in what we all deal with on some level. I felt like my choice of verbiage was being picked apart. Obviously, I was being a little sensitive. I use verbiage a little differently than you...

    Who is single here?

    I'm super social too. But have to say, LOVE to people watch. Favorite place to people watch in my opinion is Las Vegas. ha ha

    I can't take it anymore

    Thank you! I had to giggle about your son learning BSL because the chicks think it's sexy when he does. :)

    I can't take it anymore

    For me in my experience, I mostly only know the hearing world. I have been very lucky with the support system I have had. Work paid for my hearing aides, friends that do the best they can, etc. I'm sorry that your experience hasn't been so good. :( Ignorance is frustrating and so not...

    I can't take it anymore

    Thank you!! I'm really interested in getting to know more people that go through what I do. That's why I'm here, to talk to people who really relate and understand. Its awesome and makes me feel not so alone., which I feel a lot being in the hearing world as I am. :)

    From Oticon Epoq to Chili to Phonak Bolero SP

    Thank you and I will. I got some really good feedback from this site and feel more armed with better questions to ask my audi now. Like the Naidas and also, programming to be more analog. :)

    I can't take it anymore

    I think that's great! I'm just speaking in terms of my own experience and what I went through. It's all good. :)

    Thank you for that advice! I go back tomorrow and definitely will ask about those. :)

    I can't take it anymore

    Honestly, this is all a little unsettling. Instead of being able to share my experiences with other deaf people, I'm getting put down, told I'm saying things wrong, and made to feel on the defensive instead. I'm not feeling real welcome here which is really sad being we are all dealing with...

    I can't take it anymore

    Actually, and honestly, i'm very excited to be talking and involved with other deaf people. That's why on this forum. Its my culture too. I'm super confused though why there are so many rules? Coming from you? I'm not sure why I'm being told I cant have my own opinions here? I use "route" and...
