Hearing Loss

Auditory-Verbal Approach to Hearing Loss

I am interested in the auditory-verbal approach for my child. It teaches a child to listen in a different way than a normal hearing child and to comprehend what is being said. Some examples had “deaf” kids (had their aids) behind a door and they could understand what was being said by the person on the other side.

Used by itself, this is not the best way to teach hard of hearing people to communicate. Here’s why.

Aging and Hearing Loss

Why does hearing get worse as we get older?

This article explains why hearing loss is not really a product of aging, but is really the cumulative effects of three factors caused by living in modern society.

What I Wish Audiologists Understood

A lot of people are not completely happy with their audiologists. Obviously, audiologists are missing the boat somewhere. I am an audiologist just starting my own audiological practice.

Here is what audiologists need to do (besides fitting and selling hearing aids) in order to really help us.

Hair Cell Regeneration—Overcoming the Challenges

What are some of the challenges facing researchers in their quest for hair cell regeneration? Are they unlocking the secrets that make hair cells “tick”?

Hair cell regeneration has been in the news for some time now. Will it soon restore hearing for the millions of hard of hearing people? I’d love to know your thoughts about this.

Stripped of all the media hype, this article gives a realistic view of what hair cell regeneration may do for hard of hearing people.

How Much Are You Worth as a Hard of Hearing Person

I hear the terms “hearing impairment,” “hearing handicap” and “hearing disability” used seemingly interchangeably. Why do we have these terms if they all mean the same thing? Also, how do you calculate the degree of hearing disability?

This article explains the difference between a handicap and a disability and how to calculate the degree of disability we suffer as hard of hearing people which, in turn, is used to calculate how much of a disability pension you may be eligible for.

"The wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life [which also includes perfect hearing] through Jesus Christ our Lord." [Romans 6:23]

"But know this, in the last days perilous times will come" [2 Timothy 3:1]. "For there will be famines, pestilences, and [severe] earthquakes in various places" [Matthew 24:7], "distress of nations, the sea and the waves roaring"—tsunamis, hurricanes—Luke 21:25, but this is good news if you have put your trust in the Lord Jesus Christ, for "when these things begin to happen, lift up your heads [and rejoice] because your redemption draws near" [Luke 21:28].
