Lol, lol. <br />I have a friend whose hearing is deteriorating, but will he go for a hearing test? NO WAY! "I'm not ready for hearing aids yet awhile!" So stubborn. I guess lots of moaning will improve things. But not for his long-suffering wife and friends. We had an evening out recently, an evening show with a brilliant comedian. My friend sat there, arms folded, grumpy, even though the whole room was in hysterics at this very funny comedian. Oh joy!

Husband complained that the noise of the rain on the cars - when he first had his aids - was too loud. I told him this is what it actually sounds like. But, like you, he's got used to them now and has got in the shower with them on, too. But if, when he takes them out and doesn't always switch them off properly, I can hear them beep in his bedside drawer, in their box, my hearing is so acute, so loud noises are actually quite painful for me. The other day I was in our sitting room, and my mobile was in my bag in the bedroom, and the bedroom door was closed, and I could still hear it beep a couple of times from that distance, through closed doors and with it in my bag as well. But when I say "The TV is too loud, it hurts..." no one believes me. It can be useful, though. I can hear conversations across a room when we're in a café. That can be quite good fun!<br />Margaret P galanthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14190356279359463949noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4690929350463100222.post-68960436554331242652017-03-07T22:41:03.503-08:002017-03-07T22:41:03.503-08:00Yep.

Grumble, whinge, lose your temper, throw it out, complain that its no longer working.
