You might refer to yourself as late deafened. And explain thus you can talk but some pitches and/or accents on in the range you have lost. Manya-hoh The amount of hearing I have currently is similar to yours but when I lost what is very different. I lost all hearing in my left ear at the age...

I use Live Transcribe on a phone with the Android OS. I do not know about ones for Iphone's IOS. As well as one on one conversation I use it regularly for the part of a church service that goes over the regular sound system; but it has problems with comments from the congregation that are...

Is that VA audiologist a CI Audiologist rather than just a general audiologist? That special training can make a real difference in the outcome.

Both Barbaro and Authentic have been around here long enough (Barbaro 2007 and Authentic 2005) to know that politics is not allowed any longer as a topic for discussion.

In comparing brands you might want to got to this forum https://hearingjourney.com/. It is run by Advanced Bionics but also has a few members with other brands. They do offer the what they call a "T-mic" that sits at the opening to the ear and keeps you from having to hold a phone differently...

I am not active at a local senior center, although I am old enough, but I have been to numerous events/meetings where self introduction is used. Even as a very hard of hearing person I have no problem with the idea. I do miss what many of the others are saying but I prefer putting up with that...

I use #675 batteries for a hearing aid and I have read of people that have gotten a hold of that version when they really wanted the version for a CI. You might want to double check for that if your disposable CI batteries are numbered 675

According to Gas Buddy for Centralia, IL they are $1.87 -$1.89 depending on which station you go to April 16, 2020 (right before noon Central Daylight Time)

It occurred to me this morning some of us old timers may still have an old fashioned way of coping with allergy drainage! Do you still have some handkies, also known as handkerchiefs, around? If you run out of tissues, dig the hankies out and use them as being cloth they can be washed and reused.

I knew of the restaurants doing it or drive-thru before the lock down and neglected to mention it. I was wondering about places that just started now and will they be deciding to stay with it when they didn't have to.

You just made me wonder if some of the items that are now curbside pickup will turn out to be so convenient for people that selling the product that way will continue after the "stay at home" orders?

It looks to me like HEB must be a grocery store. Barbaro, the things you just described or where I am thinking Live Transcribe would help.

I am weird but lucky in this case. I think it was in the 1970s that I found a hair style that I like where I wear my hair "up" and have stayed with it. Thus, I cut my own off when it gets long enough to be unwieldy. Of course, I do wash it. I can't remember having a professional manicure...

Except the salons are not open!

I did not think of that part. We do not have a HEB here (what ever that store is) but groceries would be from Walmart, ALDI, Schnucks or even Dollar General that I can think of at the moment. I do have a corded mic that I connect to my phone mainly to keep from covering up the mic on my phone...

I have not been out to have occasion for it to happen. But I have the app Live Transcribe on my phone and would turn that on and try to get it that way.

I suggest you contact the company you sold it to. If they are like the dealership my dad worked at many years ago, they went through it and put aside what they found. The worst answer you can get is that they don't have it but you will not know if you don't ask!

Have you contacted the people you sold the car to? My dad sold cars for a living and the tradeins were always gone through before they were resold. They found all kinds of things in them. Some people would came back but others did not. I still have a set of salt & pepper shakers and a baby's...

I have "The Talk" on on TV and they got to comparing how they are doing without their hair and makeup artists and how grateful they are for those peoples skills. Any comment about salons being closed anyone?

I have been using Live Transcribe for what my Pastor and anyone else using a mic says during church services for some time. Something said by someone out in the congregation without a mic is not distinct enough for it to be picked up though. But yesterday I got to try something new! During...
