I’m still working on the book proposal. It’s starting to look really good, and I had to change one chapter a bit.
I’ve already got ideas for a second book.
I’m still at the House Ear Institute, helping out with lipreading research.
I will be at the Walk4Hearing in Long Beach, CA on November 8th. Hope you can [...]

October is National Protect Your Hearing Month and it’s also Audiology Awareness Month. It’s a good month to check out your hearing for the upcoming holidays.
My DHH book proposal went out for review. I won’t hear anything until October 19th. So now I’m reading other hearing loss books and if I see anything I like, [...]

I have to do a bit more tweaking on the proposal, and then it goes out tomorrow.
Let me take this time to tell everyone about the Walk4Hearing fundraiser, which will be in Long Beach, CA on Saturday, November 8th, 2009. It starts at 10 AM, and it’s a simple, beautiful walk right by the ocean.

Well, the weather has cooled off significantly, so I’ve been working on the DHH book proposal. It is coming along, and I have a target date of end of September.
I also will be helping the House Ear Institute in downtown L.A., helping with research purposes. It is in the field of lipreading. It sounds really [...]

I apologize for not blogging as much, but the book proposal and end of summer activities have kept me busy.
In the next week or so, I think the book proposal will be finished. It’s starting to look really nice, and I think I have novel information to offer the DHH reading market.
Interestingly, here are many, [...]

This morning I was shopping at my local grocery store.
While in there, I saw a DHH woman walking down an aisle with a hearing son. It was apparent to me that she had a cochlear implant done in the past. We were surprised to see each other, because obviously we are both local. I didn’t [...]

One of the things I hope to share is links to other great DHH bloggers and resources.
Oh, [...]
My Hearing Cat

I am totally convinced that our cat, Princess, knows I have hearing loss.
If there is something going on, or she wants something, she will bump me, pull my hair with her teeth, or even bite me gently. This is while I’m asleep. I usually can figure out that she wants to get out of our [...]
Really Advanced Hearing Aid Research

How would you like to have a hearing aid implanted in your molar?
Yes, I mean a tooth. This particular type of hearing aid is only for someone who is deaf in one ear, like actor Rob Lowe is. This is in the research mode though, and they are looking for suitable candidates. As I understand [...]
