When I was completely deaf, I would feel the garbage truck come through my keyboard. It still plays a big role in my hearing.Abbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17272667052295179028noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8143823763377733172.post-62747781424889292752008-07-02T14:39:00.000-05:002008-07-02T14:39:00.000-05:00Yeah touching or feel is more stronger sense while...Yeah touching or feel is more stronger sense while trying to listen....for us with CI that is.<BR/><BR/>I have speakers on the computer desk, when I have my hands laying on the keyboard pad...I don't hear very well til I let my hands off it, I hear better. Very interesting.<BR/><BR/>When I'm watching a movie and picks up my drink...especially a styrofoam cup, I lose concentration on listening.<BR/><BR/>I got CI at age 34 after 32 years of no hearing...hearing aids never helped at all. So I believe kids being CI'ed at early age should be able to hear while feeling something else when they get older. I could be wrong?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
