Well it's funny you should mention that because for a few years now I have had itchy ears which stops if I am not wearing earmoulds. I never had any problems...
Me too! Thank you Darren! Having said that, Lidia made me think... there is definitely a different general attitute to deafness in the rest of Europe... both...
I don't think that people always have the same reasons for hiding hearing aids. Some people are wary of letting people see them because that's like announcing...
Hey guys. Don't you love a very healthy discussion! Yes, Europe has all different attitutes and it is not about "division" between hoh and deaf. It is simply,...
What is happening in the UK now is that the Baby Boom generation born just after WW2 are now maturing nicely, like fine wine. Unfortunately many of them are...
Yes, it s so good to be discussing things. Feels like the good old days in this group! Unfortunately, I have to go just now, but will try and reply to the new...

But there is a negative part to Deaf culture. We should discuss that because it is a problem. As long as I can remember there has been a small number of Deaf...

Thanks Sarah... glad you liked it. It helps me to look at it that way and it certainly has felt like a journey to me. A few years ago, I felt I took a quantum...
sorry being cheeky but had to say something is lipreading acceptable then compared to signing? as i wouldve thought a lot of people has been expected to learn...

Thanks Lidia :). Re lipreading, well, that is certainly true for me, but I think it depends on the person. Most people who are very good lipreaders are...

I think many in here will be able to relate to that! Even though my hearing loss is now profound, noise can really affect me. I came back from the fireworks...
I'm a fairly new hearing aid user(6yrs) & I too, go from feeling perfectly ok with my hearing aids & sometimes feeling I do NOT need them! But of course, when...
