Thanks for visiting my diary. I've been journaling since 1984 and have chosen to share some of my entries online. They are not all positive thoughts, but I hope that reading them might be a blessing to someone who needs encouragement.
If you are just coming to my diary for the first time, please read my introductory entry, where I share some background that is important if you plan to follow this diary regularly.
Please also visit my music page, where you can hear samples from my debut CD, I Believe, which features songs written based on experiences shared in this journal.
I had more hearing tests today. This would sound weird to most people, but something wonderful happened. My tests were worse than last time. I heard less of more frequencies--hope that makes sense. I mentioned thinking of trying to get help from a foundation, and the audiologist acted like a lightbulb had come on. She walked off down the hall and came back with a form. She thinks that my testing results will qualify me, and also the letter from the Seeing Eye will help them understand my individual situation. My financial situationis obviously not great, and she didn't think that would be a problem. She thinks it's better to try the foundation this time since Medicaid is being so unhelpful. (Yes, it's easy to get glasses, but who really cares if you can't hear?! I think it's the dumbest thing!)
This really reminds me of applying for Medicaid in 1998. "If you're blind enough," the lady kept saying. Well, just how blind did she think I really wasn't? *LOL*
I think Mom is upset about the testing being worse. I'm upset, but at the same time I am relieved not to be sitting on the borderline anymore.
