When my husband, Rich picked up on my hearing loss, I was neither interested nor compelled to do any research to solve the problem. I conceded he was right and went for a quick fix. And so, over 20 years ago, I made my very first hearing aid purchase, hastily and out of pure necessity.
A Wonderful Stroke of Luck
My stroke eliminated the 20-year age difference between Bruce and me, making me older than him in some ways. I was supposed to be pushing him around in a wheelchair at this stage of our lives. He is, after all, 94 years old.
