I was born deaf. I wore 2 aids during school but at home I had one on my left ear. But I had aids since I was very little. 1 I think is when I started to wear aids.

Oooh that is a good idea to see if I could borrow it for a bit to try it.

I have a blog all about me and updates for my jaw op, teeth fixings, possibly CI and/or new aids. Check me out at Angie's Deaf World I have followed a few of you guys who have them but have not approved me. Add me to your followers.

That is what I want to do if I am eligible for CI. Try to keep my good left ear the way it is and use my right ear for CI if it works. I have contacted my main audie for the audiogram files. I will have her email me. Mind you though that is about 4 or so years old when I got my first digital...

Wow thank you for your great quick input. My only fear is if the CI don't work in my left ear, I won't be able to hear ever with aid or not. I will be making phone calls soon. My hubby will be helping me with all of that. I will contact my audie and see if she can email me my hearing test numbers.

I was born deaf in both ears. But I hear very well with hearing aid in my left ear, my right ear is pretty much nothing. Now when I went to DePaul Institute for the Deaf in Pgh Pa we wore 2 aids with a box and cords, I would hear much better. But never had 2 aids growing up to wear at...

Old thread that went dead. I have DigiFocus digital hearing aids.. Translucent,along with black and gold ear mold for the Steelers. I am working on trying to get a CI to see if I am eligible for it. If not I may try and see about the Naidas, they are pretty sick in color. I saw the deep...

All I know is that Social Security gave an extra 250 dollars in the month of may. As a stimulus package.

Huh, Never heard of that. Since you are already a customer for DirecTv you will have to pay for a new upgraded box for HD. But if you are a new customer you get 1 free HD Box and the regular non HD boxes are usually free. My new HD Tv has CC built in and I was never charged for CC through...

What are you saying that Omnia works with VP some how? My hubby got the Omnia in December and loves it. I am not fond of it cause I can not hear if I talk to my parents or hubby, to staticy. He had the Storm for 30 days and down right hates it. Switched to Curve and had nothing but problems...

I get social security and I work as well. But I may be loosing SS sometime cause I will be making a bit too much. But my SS really helped me and my hubby through the years by having a roof over our heads and his pay checks paid regular bills. We did not have the high luxury until this year. WE...

Thank you all for your welcome. :ty: :deaf: ROX

I was a member here but can not remember my old user name/password. But I like this one better though. My name is Angel and I am from Pittsburgh Pa. Not far from Kennywood Park. I was born deaf, but use hearing aid. I speak very well and know very little ASL. But all of my friends I went to...

am I supposed to purchase the product too. This is all new to me. Where do I go to invite people. I just joined on that site.

I am getting this side kick tomorrow. All of my deafie friends have side kicks and I have played with my friends quite often. I love side kicks, now that this one came out I am picking it up tomorrow. I can not wait to finally keep in touch with all my deafies.

My hubby said the same thing. He went to see maybe they could let him pay the difference they said have to wait 60 months. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr, so I have a year and half before getting a QWERTY phone. But If I talk to the one rep she may be able to let us get a QWERTY phone sooner.

I have noticed that through VZ, they do have such nice phones too. Lots of red my favorite color. lol I have to have color especially red. lol :giggle:

Why I hate AT&T, all phones and reception is terrible, also it is very staticy as well. Hard to hear and all too. Very little coverages as well too. I say VZ first then T-Mobile

I agree, I had sprint and it was nice then. Customer service is horrible and all. My hubby went through 2 and half battery life to get ahold of customer service. That is bad. VZ is one of the best. I hate AT&T.
