You must be apart of the KKK cause you sure do mention them a lot. And yes I know about the controversy but not much on the Deaf culture as a whole. That's like me saying I know the percentage of nitrogen on Neptune but I don't know about the alkaline levels. It is possible to know one aspect of...

I don't need to be informed about something I know. I'm done talking to you cause you don't get that it's done and that it for me.

I went to pick my colors and my accessories today and can't wait for operation day. I shouldn't have much work to do at the activation because they think I have enough memory to understand sounds.

But on a good note I decided to go with my right CI by AB and a left Hearing aid from Phonak. They are compatible with each other and maybe after a year or so I will get my left if I feel the need to.

What the other companies do don't have anything to do with my choice either like I said I have my own mine. And I have a very open mind. Your not understanding that I understand both sides about CIs but I still choose to get one. I don't care what anyone else is doing for me to do what is...

Respect is given regardless that is the problem with people. People think they are above others and think everyone needs to earn respect wrong it's just given its called having manners and etiquette. I was raised to always give respect to my elders and younger peers. No matter what show respect...

There are many medical issues in the world and every one of them has its issues good or bad that affect the individuals with what ever condition or disability that they have. Companies everywhere no matter the product is good and bad at the same time. Everyone is always going to be affected be...

You really just don't understand and it's because your so close minded and one sided that you don't understand. There are many companies that do what you are saying in their own way. The world doesn't revolve around anyone not even the deaf world. He made that reference because it's a...

Well you need to learn some respect because I'm am not a child and no you will not communicate to me at all like I am a child and making a decision for myself is far from childish and this is my thread so I can say what I please on my thread if you don't like it then you can get off it cause...

Well if they want to refuse help from an interpreter and not get all the understanding from the condition then that is their issue not mine.

I know all of that and I'm not Deaf I'm deaf but I will use what I can because of school and the career I have chosen. I don't think it will make me less deaf but it will help me in my career.

Are you a teacher now I'm not a child and you won't talk to me like one. I have defined what Deaf/deaf/HoH means in previous post. I go to the doctor today to tell them what I want to do and that's it.

Yes it was about both. You can't have deaf rights with being deaf. They interviewed the man saying that they were not forcing the treatment on anyone but at the same time telling the parents that it was the best choice for the child to have the best chance at life which is just a manipulation...

I think that a CI is not a cure and that a deaf person is still deaf with or without a CI.

Yes I watched it. And you have stated a lot on my thread that was only about just sticking with one or getting two. So instead of you just repeating over and over the same thing with no results just be done with on this thread cause my mind won't change. You can believe in what you want and...

Yes moving on cause my choice is final. And yes that was a topic of discussion when I spoke to a CI user that is born deaf and we agreed on the topic.

I would tell them I decided as an adult to get my CI because it's a life changing and permanent decision. I would tel them that individual need to choose that for themselves. If they choose to still get one that is their choice. I'm don't believe in controlling anyone's mind on anything. But I...

You are the one who brought up the oil companies and people cutting down trees I just replied to what you brought up. And I know what a multi nation company does I have said that multiple times. And your the one that is still going around in circles on something that I have already made my...

Why would I tell a parent the best choice the have for their deaf child is a CI know that isn't true. I would definitely tell them to learn to sign and too look at the local deaf school and do everything they can to be in their child's life not the other way around. They can wait til their child...
