I need to address the issue of hearing aids. A lot has already been said to address problems with hearing. It is not easy to admit that you need help but when the decision to purchase hearing aids has been made, don’t procrastinate. It might sound a little strange when you first read those two words but one reason and probably the most often mentioned reason is the issue of money. There is no way to get around the cost unless you qualify for Medicare or some other program that will assist with the purchase.
A second and just as important reason to get hearing aids is that they will help to prevent further loss of hearing. It may sound strange at first to read that but it is true. I have a deteriorating nerve loss and over the 25 years I have been wearing hearing aids the amount of loss has only dropped slightly. I'm not sure exactly how to explain it except that the hearing aid forces the nerves to respond. As long as the nerves are stimulated they will respond to noises/sounds. If the nerve is not stimulated there is no reason for the nerve to work and the level of hearing drops.
