I still don't understand spoken words, only enjoying environmental sound such as race car, sound of rain hit on tin roof, almost profoundly deaf but can hear on very low frequency, can't hear on high.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5547149117116038825.post-15353289825524834002008-07-28T06:53:00.000-07:002008-07-28T06:53:00.000-07:00Anonymous, <BR/><BR/>By the way, I do not agree to the word, audism, for using hearing aids. It seems to be off the focuspoint of the audism. Audist looks down on us, the Deaf people. Then how can the hearing aids be considered a part of audism? Not only us, but the general people who loses little hearing in their latter lives. We use it to hear something.

I accept the idea (?) that I am without any hearing aid the rest of my life. <BR/><BR/>I would give the digital hearing aid a test or trail before I take it. <BR/><BR/>deafkdeafkhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16299560331957713425noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5547149117116038825.post-83213961387831104452008-07-28T04:18:00.000-07:002008-07-28T04:18:00.000-07:00Don't bother getting hearing aids. They will just support the idea of audism. I feel more free after I got rid of my hearing aids. I don't have to be slave to my hearing aids.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
