Great information, Our primary purpose has always been to help people hear better. To reconnect the hard of hearing with the world around them, and to end the isolation that comes from not being able to hear friends and family. After fitting you patient with the best hearing aids available, how often have you heard, "I can't hear the TV and/or I can't hear at my church". Loop Systems address those two very central issues... and many more.

What a wonderful event! We were so happy to be a part of the 2011 HLAA Convention. Looking forward to being part of next year's event.

One of my favorite quotes was from my roommate. We're the same age, met on the HLAA forum in looking for a roommate. She's from NYC and is the stereotypical Jewish mother. We got on great! More than once, she'd drag someone to me (or me to someone), and, in speaking about me, tell her friend: "You've got to meet my roommate; she's from Alabama" (as if I was from another country and maybe spoke another language)! I WAS told that I don't have much of an accent, but that's probably because I took voice in college and had worked corporate switchboards.

I didn't get to attend all I wanted to - just too tired and brain overload! Best for me that I attended was the one by Neil Bauman about ototoxic drugs. Netagene in Birmingham

Tracfone has done a lot of good deeds for the poor in our communities too, buy giving them a free Tracfone providing they are on state security of some sort. So I'm proud to support Tracfone by using their plans and phones as they have the lowest out of pocket cost plan $19.99/90 days/120 minutes (if you have the DMFL plan) and they offer the cheapest prepaid phone for the elderly on the market which is hearing aid friendly, the SVC Samsung T155G ($14.99).

Hi Nancy,

I enjoyed reading this! Thanks! and I also looked some at your blog and the librarian's blog. Learned at age 61 that I am a little bit deaf (mild loss one ear, moderate loss in the other - really have trouble hearing "moderate" voices even close by); at age 59 I became a little bit blind (detached retinas - doctors got one eye back to working pretty good). Yeah, sometimes people think I'm making up both things. Wish I could get a crash course in ASL. Going to the convention for the first time! Wahoo!

If you're suffering from hearing related problems and are looking for an alternative to expensive hearing aids or surgery you may want to look into natural treatments for hearing loss. Hearing Loss Treatment can help you. New research shows that certain supplements, vitamins, minerals and herbs can be used effectively to improve hearing.

Mark is truly the definition of an American Hero though he is very modest about that. His example of how to go on after suffering what he experienced will give hope and encourgement to many others. Meeting Mark and watching he and Sunny enjoy their time at the HLAA was wonderful!

Dear Abbie...

I have this problem that perhaps you can give me your doctor expertise on.

This place rocks! I look forward to my second convention and meeting everyone, especially the young adults.
