Hello,

my name is brian from the suburbs of chicaco. Just lookin for a place where I can learn about my new disability. Just became Hard of Hearing this year (i'm 19)... lived with perfect hearing til an addiction took it away from me. I am completely deaf in my right ear, and moderate hearing loss in my left. I can hear moderately well with hearing aids. I don't know sign or how to read lips... anyone got any hints/tips or places to start researching this?

thanks... I became deaf in january... still adjusting to my new lifestyle..
 
Hi and :welcome: to AD! This forum has lots of related topics and hope this will help & guide you. Enjoy! :)
 
Get involved with the deaf clubs up in Chicago, there's plenty of things to do with deafies up there.
 
:welcome: to AllDeaf forum. Deaf Clubs is the way to go to start to getting to know the Deaf and Hard of Hearing people to communicate. Hope you find what you are looking for. Good Luck. I hope you enjoy reading and posting all the threads here. Have fun with us. See you around. :wave:
 
So you're one of those folks who have an undetectable accent and, as telemarketers, call us during dinner hours. That's alright. I hail from Illinois, as well.

Welcome.
