For all the men and women who came marching home,
and most especially, for all those who didn't....
WE REMEMBER!
And I'm proud to be an American,
where at least I know I'm free.
And I won't forget the men who died,
who gave that right to me.
-- Lee Greenwood
MELODEE, YOUR LAST ENTRY MENTIONED NOT HEARING WELL. ME TOO AFTER PITCHING A PAIR OF EXPENSIVE HEARING AIDS WHICH OUTLIVED THEIR 'LIFETIME' GUARANTEE'
ReplyDeleteYES THE LIFETIME OF A HEARING AID IS FOUR YEARS . DID NOT READ THE FINE PRINT WHEN BUYING.
SOME VOICES AND SOUND ARE HEARD FAIRLY WELL WITHOUT A HEARING AID, WHILE OTHER VOICES LEAVE ROOM FOR INTERPRETATION. SOMETIMES REALIZING THE NOD SHOULD HAVE NOT HAPPENED.
NO PLANS TO PURCHASE ANOTHER HEARING AID UNLESS THE MARKET OFFERS SOME SORT OF MECHANISM THAT IS AFFORDABLE FOR LIMITED INCOME ONES SUCH AS MYSELF.
WITH ALL THIS STUFF BEING INVENTED NOW AND MARKET OVERLOADED WITH IT, WHY CANT THEY COME UP WITH A LOW PRICED 'SKULL CAP' WITH HEARING DEVICE HANGING DOWN OVER THE EARS, PERHAPS A POCKET IN THE CAP FOR THE BATTERY, OFFERING IT FOR AN AFFORDABLE PRICE TO WE THAT ARE NOT ADDICTED TO FASHION AND DO NOT MIND BEING SEEN AS ONE THAT IS MAKING NO ATTEMPT TO ADHERE TO LATEST FASHION, JUST WOULD ENJOY HEARING DURING THE SATURDAY MORNING COFFEE/DONUT HOUR AND CONTACTS DURING THE DAY. sam
