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.

My DHH book proposal is nearly done. I think maybe in a week or less. I am writing the sample chapter now.
We’re due for a brutal heat wave next week. Darn. But my husband and I believe it’s the last one for 2009, and then October will breeze in.
I love October. It’s my favorite month [...]

I apologize for not blogging as much, but the book proposal and end of summer activities have kept me busy.

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 [...]

I am so glad to be rid of that darn cold. I think I haven’t had a serious cold like that for 3 or 4 years. It was nasty.
Anyway, I was informed my certification as a hearing loss support specialist will arrive in the mail shortly. When it comes, I hope to post it to [...]

DCARA’s Community Building is very nice. It is across the street from the San Leandro BART station. My husband was delighted with the location. He took our daughter to San Francisco for the day, while I was at [...]
