When in college one of the floors of my dorm was leased out to the hearing impaired students at a near by vocational school. I remember how lights were used for alerts.

I really LIKE that story. I'll have to tell it to my kids... My oldest son, 11 yrs old, is HOH - so, he might especially get a kick out of it. It obviously applies to everyone, though. Glad to have surfed my way into here tonight. Nice blog! Deb Hey… I really LIKE that story.

It took me awhile to get used to that about them and learn how loud I need to talk around them, have my lips visible to them so if needed, they can lip read, etc. The words in the article are good to know. THANKS! I have several friends that have a hearing loss.

I have several friends with a hearing loss and I'm closer to each of them than most of my other friends that don't have a hearing loss. Most people that have accepted it are happier people than those of us that have all our senses. We all have something wrong with us. No one is perfect.

This isn't something I think about as a rule... but I do know how I hate to be startled like that. Not good for the system -- or the walls! Yum... can taste the lasagna from here. Barb Thank you!
