Thousands of us, people of all ages, wear hearing
aids. They help us to hear and keep us tuned in to
life. We vividly remember how difficult it was to make
up our minds to get help when we suspected we were
losing our hearing. Some of us waited too long and
became dependent on our spouses or strained our relationships
by constantly asking for sentences to be repeated or
by arguing over how loud we turned up the TV.
It's easy to be confused about hearing loss - whether
or not you need help. Sometimes, you hear fine. Other
times, not so well.
