My hearing loss awareness campaign, Show Me Your Ears, has a new supporter. ReSound, hearing technology manufacturer that created the Versos I am wearing in these photos, has offered to help me promote the awareness project. I hope that you will visit the Show Me Your Ears page, as well as the ReSound Blog to learn more about how you can spread the word that ears are beautiful.
Check out my new ears!
I’m interested in knowing what kind of hearing loss you have or can you give me your numbers on an audiogram?
Hi Arlene – I have sensorineural hearing loss that is moderate to in my left ear and severe to profound in my right ear, with a profound high frequency hearing loss in both ears.
I do think your daughter will be able to hear those birds after all. She has some good high frequency hearing in the Left ear. I think you’ll notice a significant difference once she adjusts to her new hearing aids : ) I know at my house (I live in the woods) birds are louder than they appear on the familiar sounds audiogram.
