With hearing-aids, i don’t really fit in with Deaf nor hearing ppl.

Its the one on the left. Kept it until i was a sophomore in hs. Naturally, the shiny box-like aid, with the long cord, attracted bullies.</p> <p>Then the audie wanted me to wear a hearing aid behind each ear(bte). Said no way, im freaky enough!</p> <p>Now im older and i see older ppl with hearing aids all the time. I guess that means as i get older i become more normal???</p>http://5thwheelsqueal.tumblr.com/post/19087854579http://5thwheelsqueal.tumblr.com/post/19087854579Sat, 10 Mar 2012 19:31:21 -0500hearing aidhearing lossdeaf
