By Brenda Battat When Someone Close to You Refuses to Admit They Have Trouble Hearing, What Do You Do? An estimated 37,000 people came to the Washington, D.C. Convention Center for the AARP Life@50+ Convention, September 3-6, 2008. HLAA staff worked in shifts at the HLAA exhibit booth in the huge exhibit hall with more than 4,000 exhibits including travel, health, technology, government agencies, and non-profit organizations. Hundreds of people stopped by our booth to get information about hearing loss. Some people had specific questions about hearing aids and where to get a hearing test. But, by far, the majority were family members who expressed frustration because their husbands, wives, mothers, or fathers were refusing to admit they may have some trouble hearing. They spoke of their frustration with TVs blaring, phones unanswered, not being able to hold a conversation on the phone, and having to repeat © Cindy Dyer Cindy © conversations again and again. “How do I get my wife, husband, mom, dad, to do something about their hearing loss? They refuse to admit they have From the a problem and it’s driving me crazy.” D-E-N-I-A-L Executive One of the most common reactions of people when they develop hearing loss is denial. This denial can be the result of many things but one key reason is Director’s that in our society hearing loss is seen as a sign of getting old and confused. Being hard of hearing or deaf comes with heavy historical baggage, Desk from stereotypical usage such as “deaf and dumb” to putting deaf people in institutions because they were considered uneducable. This is reinforced by the media making fun of the mistakes people make not hearing what is said. These negative associations have gelled into a stigma that has proven hard to eradicate. Younger Adults with Hearing Loss However, there is also a positive generational component. Today younger adults are more likely to admit their hearing loss, seek help and move on. Younger adults tend to be more comfortable with technology, have grown up with disability rights laws such as the Americans with Disabilities Act and the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act, and have never known TV without captioning. When people of any age with hearing loss find HLAA and our chapters, they let their hair down, learn self-advocacy and take advantage of technology and communication strategies that when used together, are life changing. By taking action to manage their hearing loss they in no way can be seen as old and confused—they are in the game.

    The 27th Annual National Football Foundation and College Hall of Fame Scholar-Athlete Awards 2020 The Colorado Chapter (2019-20) On April 13, the Colorado Chapter was set to celebrate its 27th class of outstanding high school scholar-athletes, but was one of many casualties due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Colorado Chapter of the National Football Foundation and College Hall of Fame was chartered on July 1, 1992, and is one of 120 chapters in 47 states that make up the organization. Its members include former players, coaches, athletics administrators, educators, officials, news media and football fans, all of who enjoy the game of football and share in its purposes and goals. One of its primary goals is to recognize and honor the top high school football student-athletes in the state – young men who have distinguished themselves on the field, in the classroom and in extracurricular and community activities where leadership abilities are displayed. The 27th annual awards banquet was set to recognize 17 of the top student-athletes chosen from a field of statewide nominees and selected by an impartial committee with diverse backgrounds. The criteria for selection is based on a combination of athletic ability (40 percent), academic achievement and character (40 percent) and citizenship and service (20 percent). Colorado remains the only chapter nationwide that selects collegiate players of the week and a collegiate All- State team, starting for the 2003 season, with 2019 thus marking the 17th straight year of such recognition. And beginning in 2014, the chapter began recognizing an Academic All-Colorado team comprised of the 10 football- playing colleges and universities in the state, along with selecting a Scholar-Athlete of the Year (based upon academic and athletic excellence).

  • “This Kid Is Intense!” Meet Washington Redskins NFL Player Reed Doughty
    By Barbara Kelley “This Kid is Intense!” Meet Washington Redskins NFL Player Reed Doughty Can you smell it? Sniff harder, you’ll catch it. It’s November and football is in the air. Here in Washington, D.C., we smell football early. The hometown team, the Washington Redskins, commenced training camp in August at Redskins Park in Ashburn, Virginia, where fans flocked to see their beloved Skins at open practices. Don’t even try to keep us away. We show up in thousands. Except for one day in August. I left the thousands behind (I already had joined the thousands on Fan Appreciation Day) and met Reed Doughty on the last day of training camp. Drafted by the Washington Redskins in the sixth round of the 2006 NFL Draft, Reed was known last year as the man who replaced Sean Taylor, Number 21, who died tragically in 2007. That was last year. This year, you can spot Reed as Number 37—the starting strong safety who is tenacious, aggressive, loves to sack the quarterback, and interrupt what the opposing offense has so carefully planned. He is known as a solid and versatile cover safety who fits in well with Washington’s aggressive defense and special teams. Doughty, 26, graduated from Northern Colorado University as the school’s first ever three-time Academic All American with a 4.0 grade point average. He is married to Katherine (Katie). They have a son, Micah, who is almost two. Doughty took time off last year from football when their son, who is now doing well, needed a kidney transplant.
