Re: Not hearing Call phone... what options do I have?

[Guest guest]

I hope you don't mind my asking but are you hard of hearing? If so do you

know sign language?

If you do you can get a video relay system and can chat with friends like

Chip, face to face through your TV screen.

Sorry to hear about the whistling with all of you adults. Patty's whistles

when she gets sweaty. Her ear canal is also changing through the year due to

allergies. When that happens, whistles happen. Oh, and they often whistle

when she smiles really big.

For some reason it's stopped since her last surgery.

Thanks. My hearing aid is fine, the FM system did that. My hearing aid is normal

when that isn't on. Don't worry, an audiologist fixed each problem except for

the last two. An audiologist will fix the whistling. The shrieking squealing

thing? That was a one day thing, don't know why. Man, that was SCARY!! If I was

aware of a dark entity that squealed, I would have screamed when that happened!

lol!

I did that. All of my phones are at high volume. That way I hear the other

person.

Yep, I am hard of hearing. I know sign language and I am not afraid to use it!

Lol, play off of " I have a gun and I am not afraid to use it " . Funny eh? I don't

think we have a video relay. I will get that, someday lol. Probably when I have

a house of my own, probably by the time I am 30 I guess. That might not happen

though. Oh well. Fate is funny.

Talk to you later,

P.S. It would be freaky if those were alien signals trying to comunicate with

us.

You don't have to wait till you live on your own. All you need is a tv and

the internet. If you have that they come in, hook you up and show you how to

use it. It's free!

Yes it would be funny if those were aliens. Ha

I know. I have so much going on right now I just want to focus on the obligatory

new stuff. College, graduation, etc. Later, when my life settles down a bit, I

might be able to get it. I think I want as little extra change as possible, lol!
