However, I am used to deaf people so I just talk louder. :-)<br /><br />Nevertheless, I do wish my father and my husband learned sign language. Whenever Dad's hearing aid isn't working, I have to write everything out for him. It isn't easy, but hearing is important. <br /><br />And Medicare should help out with the cost.Penelope Marzechttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17563853832717077875noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12150572.post-28051374654553487272015-08-21T10:45:12.415-04:002015-08-21T10:45:12.415-04:00My husband lost most of his hearing while in the A...My husband lost most of his hearing while in the Air Force. After at least 30 years or more, he got hearing aids from the VA. Last year he accidentally smashed one. He only wears the remaining one "when he feels like it". He misses MOST conversations and I'm so tired of repeating myself. After three times, I give up.<br />Soon we'll be either learning sign language or carrying note paper around with us. I feel sorry for someone who can't hear birdsong.Irenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02684465134160083369noreply@blogger.com
