April,

I understand your listening issues, since I am deaf-blind and use a 
cochlear implant. Naturally I am a big promoter of Braille. I'm a 
software developen working mostly with Braille software, liblouis 
liblouiksutdml and BrailleBlaster . APH is now doing most of the 
development work on the last.
