‘The only thing I can’t talk her into is getting Hearing Aids.’
What is it about folks who could use hearing aids??
That’s a particular sort of vanity I’m not understanding - don’t know what it is.
Especially with the devices today, if that’s the problem - seeing the device which means knowing one is hard of hearing.
Like who didn’t know, when one has to talk extra loud around these people!
Personally, I wouldn’t want to miss hearing anything, esp music, so will gladly buy a device, if/when it becomes necessary.
Couldn’t be simpler, seems to me.
Need to fix- - -

Meant the devices today are less visible.
And the possible problem with vanity was when the devices were more visible.
Hey I wear a pair of them myself :>} I’ve got an extra pair I told her she could get set up and use. She can afford new ones too. My real concern is someone walking in on her. GOD help them if she hears them first. She has my shotgun LOL. I call before I get there :>}
Not quite vanity, my FRiend.
Hearing Aids can cost $8000.00 or more.
I have a slight hearing loss that comes from years as a self-employed musician, ergo NO health insurance of any kind.
After testing my hearing, and telling me the price, The “doctor” told me that since i did not have health insurance nor the means to pay for it, they couldn’t help me. They practically threw me out of the office when they did not see any $$$$.
So I just have to ask me students to speak clearly and distinctly. It is good for them too, as kids mostly mumble these days anyway.
And, BTW, I’m STILL “Jammin”.
