Hearing Aids

“Can you pass the napkins?”
“What?”
“I said, can you pass me a napkin?”
“I can’t understand you, what did you say?”
“Can you give me a napkin?”“Can you carve a pumpkin?”
“CAN YOU GIVE ME A NAPKIN?!?!”
“Ok ok, jeez you don’t have to yell.”

Oh how I know the frustration of living with the mortals that cope with the everyday challenge of the simple, natural, body-performing task; hearing. Every individual in the world has the knowledge that one does not last forever, and neither does his senses. Years and years of use, anything is bond for wear and tear. Although in our day in age, technological advances have allowed us to help with this wear and tear. The hearing aid has proven to be a very useful and practical machine that helps in the hearing area of our senses. Many people have become familiar with this particular device. It’s brown and smallish figure makes it out to be a very practical and effective tool. Now, because a person has two ears, naturally you are given two hearing aids, one for each ear. For the more stubborn of people, some only wear one, which if you think about it, makes no sense at all. For if one ear can hear, what happens to the other? Doe it just die, if you will, or stop working because of lack of use? If a person decides to utilize the break from their hearing problems, be sure they wear BOTH their hearing aids. If an individual is still unsure about whether or not to go for the new technological aid that is out for the taking, look for the signs. Are you finding yourself asking other people to repeat themselves more than once? Have you noticed that people you know and love are starting to sound like they are speaking some foreign language? Are you starting to repeat what you think people say, and getting that look of where did you get that from? If you’ve said yes to one or more of these things, then you might want to consider looking for some more information about these little helpers that are hardly noticeable except for their effectiveness to you. Who knows how far it will go, maybe one day we won’t have to put something in our ear, but instead have a simple surgery that fixes the issue with no problem at all. But for now, we have an effective little tool that allows a person to hear once again like in their prime. And so, for the sake and patience of the younger generation, if you need this assistance, it’s highly recommended.
