What?

What?  Hope I can stop using the phrase. For several years now I’ve been trying the patience of both friends and family by making them repeat themselves nearly every time they say something to me.  Obviously I was suffering from a great amount of hearing loss but doing nothing about it, aren’t all men supposed to be stubborn?  Recently, however, I relented and went to the doctor and audiologist and placed my order.

I’m beginning my second week wearing my new ears and I probably should say why did I wait so long?   Technology is certainly something, even merely filling the sink with water or flushing the toilet sounds like the Niagara Falls I heard sixty three years ago.  The other day I watched a whole night of television without once resorting to closed caption.\

I don’t know what I’m going to do with all the new information I will gain now that I actually understand what my granddaughters say to me.  My granddaughter Erica is an occupational therapist assistant and since working with so many older patients she had begun to almost holler at me when communicating with me.  I have to be very careful when she finally gets to talk to me, she will probably short circuit the unit..lol.  I do look forward to finally hear my Pastor’s sermons. There might be one negative, maybe won’t want to hear things that I’m now able to.

My thanks to very one for putting up with me for so long.  Please accept my apology for waiting so long.

OK for now till the next part wears out…..hope a replacements available.
