Well, I have to use an hearing device, things are far from silent though in my head, the apsirin leaves an constantly ringing sound continually all day long and all night long, sometimes I listen to the radio to take my mind off it, so I can sleep, and there are times I hear the pulsating of my own heart beat and the blood going through me, which the doctor said I would, in fact I have so many sounds going on its hard to hear sound over them...I often don't hear low tones...or talking. But piercing sounds can send me through the  roof at times...if high pitched.  My newest device is wireless, I feel like Madonna "on stage" sometimes..laughs* They tell me that this might change, if I can get the cholestrol out of my body and blood stream. At any rate the ear doctors dont' want to operate as long as I'm on heart meds...because of the blood thinners.  babies crying have always bothered me for some reason also. When my son was new born the ladies at the Elks Lodge was holding him as my hubby had taken him there and I was following him there later on, and when I walked into the door I could hear him crying, I walked straight to him, and the ladies laughed an said I knew the sound of my son an long ways off, I must be an "mother" now, but babies affect me that way. I inverably feel like I need to go to them and take their crying away from them...or what's causing it. the little girl I raised called me one time, nearly crying and I asked her what her problem was?..and she said do you know what today is?...and I thought..I said, isn't it your birthday?..and she said, Yes, and everyone around here is busy and I don't think they "care"....and I said, well, I'll take you out to dinner if you can come over here today, and so she did, and we went out to dinner. Then we went shopping and I got her somethng new to wear for her birthday.  Now, I don't see her much, (married) and wonder if she's OK and what she's doing at times. Hoping she's well and watched over kindly.

The sound of one of my children screaming in pain. I will never forget the scream I heard when Joe dislocated his knee.

The thud of a car hitting a pedestrian - living round here in such a busy area i have heard it lots of times.

I agree Stephanie, there is nothing worse than hearing one of your children crying in pain or hearing the crack as their head meets with the door post or what ever hard surface they have just walked/fallen into. I am so glad they are all grown up now my nerves couldn’t take it anymore lol

shirley raised an interesting fact there!.It must be terrible for 'deaf' people because they cant choose what they listen to, the sound of constant 'ringing' or such in their ears must be unbearable .
