It's been a long time since I was here

Alisteal, that's AWESOME! I didn't know you're VI. .....and I mean RP is overall very common in the deaf blind community...also a lot of dhh people do fear losing their sight b/c it's so important to us.
 
alisteal,

if you don't mind my asking, since you have RP, do you also have usher's?
 
Nope not Ushers. It's unknown what exactly has caused my hearing loss. However my mother's hearing has gotten so bad (she's only 52) that I really think it might be hereditary but she refuses to believe she has a problem. I can sit next to her on her right side and talk in my normal tones (pretty loud actually) and she will not hear anything until I talk VERY loud or move to her left side. She says she's got perfect hearing though :(
