and people say it is me that starts the fights here!
i find it utterly ridiculous that a thread asking for personal experiences about getting a CI is hijacked by the anti-CI folks. Why would you come into a thread just to tell them that they are wrong, that they don't accept themselves, that they are in denial, that they are limiting themselves, and on and on? It's none of your buisness how they deal with their deafness!! And the MOST ironic part is that it isn't a Deaf person making these statements, they are hearing!!
how dare you judge someone for their choices? They are deaf and you aren't, haven't been, and in all likelyhood, never will be. Who gave you the right to decide what is the best way to deal with hearing loss?
There is no shame in deafness, and there is no shame in choosing to hear. One way of living with deafness is not "healthy" and all others wrong.
