    Yeah Dr phil it is a bit odd to tell someone they hate themself for getting a device that helps them. Ahh well what can we do. I will never consider myself a hearie again. That was who I was 10years ago. I am a different person now. I am DEAF. I just have something to give me a piece of what I...

    True you have your opinion and I have mine which is acceptable. But if you read the begining 2-3 pages of this thread. Nowhere did anyone ask for anyone's opinion. Thats what I cant seem to understand. Zee came here looking for Answers from user's themselves and people who had gone through the...

    Jillio, I am sorry but how can you sit there and say, " we need to embrace our deafness" and stop trying to fix it? You seem to keep forgetting we are different people with different lives than those BORN deaf. If the technology was not a success in many many people's lives then I would...

    I too am a passionate person an sometimes let myself go when I know its better to turn the other cheek. But I also experience what life is like with hearing loss and know its not easy.. I am sure those who do not have any assitive devices face many of the same problems I do on a day to day...

    I will admit that some of what you say is clearly correct in some situation's. But when you said your sarcastic comment it hit a bone in me. I have a nephew who is HOH and may end up just like me.. A late deafend adult. It is not so cut and dry to hear most of your life then have it gone in one...

    I have read in other threads your comments. I am not threatend by what you have to say. I feel you dont have the authority to tell parents that Your decision for your child is better than their decision. When that child is not your's and does not live with you or has your lifestyle. Thats what...

    Getting CI- Confused not sure what to do

    I know right.. making assumptions on people by a few post's they make online surely is professionalism at it's finest. lol

    True enough. But we also did not use any sarcastic puns. To make those who choose not to get a CI that they are doing something wrong either. Which is what has gone on in this thread itself.

    This thread went downhill faster than a bowling ball. ZEE came here pre-surgery seeking advice from people who had the surgery on what to expect! thats it.. And the ANTI-CI population stuck their head in here like always.

    Sorry PFH, Im just pissed off at some of the crap I have been reading on here and am quite frankly tired of seeing people tell those of us who have gone through the process of a CI that we are wrong or done something wrong that is destroying deaf culture. I for one would never be a part...

    What misery am i projecting here? hmmmm I believe I am discussing my CI with people. Not projecting that I think they are doing the wrong thing. I have every right to call you out on for your repeated ANTI-CI posting on a CI forum. I believe its you who loves to pass misery upon others.
