Can't believe conversation yesterday - I am corned beef (deaf) - luckily enough to get the scratchings of a conversation on the phone with anyone.
Yesterday sister called and told me a whole big confab - re this and that. Ok says Me pretending as after 40 years - call had been heard upstairs - downstairs I come - sista comes on the phone within seconds - "did you put the phone down on me there" of course I hadn't - but I go Oh OHOHHHH - do you not realise I am deaf from birth
None of my family have ever accepted me being deaf. I have one friend who knows and understands and she says my family will never ever accept me being deaf.
conn. your posts make me smile :) you have been wearing a hearing aid since you were 3 years old, and your family don't know you have hearing problems, what do they think that thing is sticking out your ear ? :)
