Hi all, I know it's been awhile for me to post on AD, i've been overwhelmed with a ton of homework, design projects, etc. But This fall semester I've been having problems at school. Let me explain why. I started my second year at Sinclair Community College (resides in Dayton,OH) as a...

Hi guys, Sorry i have not updated this thread. I have been EXTREMELY busy with school and i had finals this week but yesterday was my last day of school.. So here we go with this update: A few weeks ago, I got an MRI scan to see if my implant has moved. Luckily, it has not. but i was...

thanks... I'm still pretty scared.. my dad kept saying that I'll end up in the poor house and that I thought i was a "big hit" to when i got the card, etc. And some of the stuff he said made me pretty upset and i'm trying not to be upset about it because I know i deserve to be in trouble right...

Okay well here's the thing, I told my dad over text about this situation while he is at work.. he's pretty mad right now. But he called the store who sold me the card and he thinks he may have got it cancelled but not sure, he wants to check my bank account to make sure I didn't lose my money...

In February, I signed up for books-a-million club card which had made me sign up for the magazine subscriptions. So i recently found out today that the magazines are charging my debit card and i'm a poor college student. Also, I am deaf, so I cannot make a phone call to the company to ask them...

Ok, another update, I went to see my CI surgeon yesterday (on the 26th) at like 2:40, and said he wants me to get a cat scan so they can see what is going on. I'm getting a cat scan on march 5th at 11AM. Then in 2 weeks I'm going in for a follow up with him to see what the hell is going on...

Ok, so here's the update. I went to my audiologist yesterday, (we got an appointment with her really fast!) about 4PM. We tried all different kind of stuff, we tried figuring out which electrodes were bothering me the most in my neck and in my eye from the vibrations. and then tried to do...

My first audi that used to handle all of my CI appointments told me that if i feel some vibrations in my eye, it would mean theres something wrong with the internal implant. I don't know if that is true or not but I've been feeling a little bit of that, very faintly though. I used to go to...

My internal processor is about 12 years old, I had this internal implant since i was 8 and I try to avoid wearing my CI because of this situation and its been making my parents annoyed. But does this also mean my CI may need to be replaced?

oops. Mods, can you move this thread to the CI section? I misread the titles.

Hi all, Sorry I've not been on Alldeaf for awhile. I'm in my 2nd semester of my first year of college. And things have been keeping me busy, also I'm in my 7 month relationship with my boyfriend. Anyways, For the past few weeks, I've been feeling vibrations on the left side of my neck...

I like my N5, it felt very light on my ear. I recently got an approval to get a processor upgrade for my left year from the Freedom to the N5, So, I'm excited! I rarely use my remote control, I'll use it once or twice a month. It's good to have though if you don't remember what program your...

ahahah yep!!! I was planning on doing that if i ever move down to DC for school, but then, I probably can't get a job because of SSI... :/

The problem with that is that my parents want me to go to sinclair for 2 years so tuition would be cheaper. They said they don't want to be paying for gallaudet's tutition that would be like a car payment. Which is why we're getting BVR and SSI to help maybe do that. But then another problem my...

This year, ohio changed semesters. the quarters are usually about 16 weeks, and they thought it would be a lot easier if they shortened the quarters to 8 weeks so people would get their work done faster and get the hell out of there so they can start working on their major in the desired...

That is true, but I don't have the deaf accent since my parents forced me to go to speech therapy for 18 years, and they got me CI's so i'm able to hear pretty well with them, but I do know sign. and my sign is SEE.. which i want to stops signing SEE and switch to ASL, which is what i'm training...

I have an appointment with BVR on the 22nd at 9AM to discuss if I am elgible for it. I'm a little worried about it because I may be too "highly functional" to get BVR because I have CI's, i was able to play music in the band, and that I can support myself by taking care of myself. My boyfriend...

I do have a note taker in all of my classes. and my parents are in the process of getting me BVR and SSI. I'm a fulltime student and i'm probably taking 10-13 credit hours, at least that's what my mom is telling me. I have school only twice a week. But i go to school all day long. My first class...

Okay here's what happened today, My mom seemed more calm and okay with what happened yesterday while we were at the wedding, My dad didn't know anything about it all day which is what my mom wanted. she wanted him to be happy and in a good mood. Later today, my mom got me up around...

Thanks, Right now my mom is still mad at me and she dosen't want to be around me, she says i'm still on her bad list. My dad is home but he doesn't know about my class drop out so far. So, i'm hoping things would be okay later. wish me luck, i'm heading on to a 2 hour drive to my cousin's wedding.
