Recently,I had the privilege to meet Arlene Romoff at a Hearing Loss meeting. She is an amazing woman who happens to inspire me. She is also the author of the book called Hear Again- Back to Life with a Cochlear Implant . I couldn't put her book down. I felt like I knew her my entire life. Arlene and I had the same exact hearing loss. Arlene is working on her second book which is about her second cochlear implant. She is now Bilateral.
Arlene wrote Communication tips for all of us who are hearing impaired back in 2008 in the Hearing Loss Association of America magazine. It is also posted on the website.
I wanted to share with you all these great tips! These tips really helped me understand what I have to do in order to communicate better this year. This Christmas will be the first that I will be hearing many new things and people!!! I never heard what Christmas is all about. I am so excited!!! The best gift ever this year is these aids. I cannot live without them they saved my life.
