This past year has been a huge challenge. A few of you here were kind enough to extend your thoughts and opinions. I wanted to say " Thanks so much to those who cared enough to message me privately" Sometimes it takes a swift kick in the butt to get a wake up call. I am on the mend, slowly and...

I live near DC and the Gallaudet University. I really haven't paid much attention to finding anyone who is Deaf or HOH. Occasionally I will see random HOH folks out and about but very few Deaf here in my county.

I am a HOH wife of a military veteran.

1. How long have you worn your hearing aids? I have worn hearing aids since I was two years old. 2. For how long before you got your hearing aids did you suspect you had a hearing loss? I knew I had hearing loss but did not really understand the seriousness until this past year. 3...

Right there with you. I am currently struggling with the realities of needing my hearing aids as to survive but my family does not use ASL or sign. I was treated as normal and never regarded as having a disability. You are not alone.

Currently living in VA far away enough from the rampages of DC and I-95 corridor… it's home for now. Lived in too many places, born at Fort Bragg, NC, lived in Port Arthur, Texas, Waco, and Port Neches, Texas as well. Lived my teenage years in Show Me State until I met my hubby. The Air Force...

I think we have the best of both good and bad drivers. I don't think it matters if you are deaf/ Hoh or hearing. If you obey the laws and rules of driving you will be just fine. Me- I drive with a little music on low, just enough to really make me focus on my surroundings. If there's kids in the...

Annie- good to see you again.

I prefer the last one. I personally have my phone loaded with emergency contacts but I think I really do like the idea of the medical bracelet and should get one for my daughter with all of her allergies.

I should be in bed sleeping instead of being up and eating a bowl of cereal. I have a 5:15 wake up call to bring my daughter to her bus stop for alternative school.

I usually get this.. are you sure you can't hear because your speech is very good and this one~ what is that thing in your ears from the little ones.

I have not been served with papers yet to do jury duty.. my hubby has twice. Just waiting for it to happen.

Just saying a hello.. been off here for awhile. Lots going on here at home. my oldest baby just turned 20, making the Dean's list and will be moving on to college campus/apartment life soon at JMU after living at home and attending community college for the last two years. Middle child is...

I know your frustration all to well. I just put my old analogs back in and just recently received a pair that were fixed. Spent a hellish summer trying digitals and a hybrid analog digitals that was $4000.00. I got tired of the adjustment and was making myself sick with anxiety. I also...

@ Vorsia- I have thought about counseling for my teenager. Thanks for your understanding. I have hope that it will turn around soon with the attitude and disrespect.

I to have depression and have similar situation but not exact. The best thing to do is seek help for the depression whether by meds or counseling or both. There are so many of us who have experienced some type of loss. Mine was giving up analog for digitals and then getting a $4000.00 hybrid...

Watching a movie trying to get rid of a hormonal migraine! Relief coming soon!

I despise report card time and it's gonna hurt baby girl when she has no tv, xbox, phone, and computer.. I am feeling a tad aggravated.. but it's the job of a momma to take a stand to poor grades.

Otherwise~ We already have one but it's filled with marriage license, birth certificates, social security numbers, baptismal records, and copy of last years taxes, along with retirement paperwork from the services. My hubby just thought from a recent fire in our area and my worries about being...
