I've Lost My WHAT: A Practical Guide To Life After Deafness

By Shawn Lovley

Baffled by your new inability to hear? Know someone who is? Then I've Lost My WHAT: A Practical Guide to Life After Deafness is for you. It talks about assistive devices, the psychology of adult-onset deafness, communication, relationships, cochlear implants, hearing aids, the Americans with Disabilities Act, telephone use, and daily life for people who've gone deaf post-lingually.

"This book should be required reading for anyone who's lost their hearing or works with late-deafened individuals. I've Lost My WHAT could very well be the late-deafened adult's Bible."--Michele Bornert, Late-deafened freelance writer

"A top-notch reference for those who become deaf."--Mary Clark, former executive director, Hearing Loss Link

"Shawn learned all this stuff the hard way. Now he's making sure you won't have to do it too."--Cheryl Heppner, Exec. Dir. Northern Virginia Resource, Center for Deaf and Hard of Hearing Persons
