HollyAlonzo – Never Giving Up Hope

Deaf, Blind, And Determined

Aid adjustments

Thank to Lord for small miracles!

I am so thrilled! I have my hearing back somewhat. It’s still not perfect, but compared to the way I’ve managed to deal with for the past nearly two years, it is amazing now!

Last time I mentioned that the company sent the wrong hearing aid. They sent the certena instead of the versata. So, that was one reason why it didn’t work so well. The other reason was that it wasn’t turned up loud enough.

Well I went back today for an adjustment and got the hearing aid I was originally supposed to get. And, I got it turned up! It’s amazing how much I can join in on now and how much I have been missing. I would hear people go in and out of the door while I was waiitn for the bus. Just the door slamming over and over. I can talk to my husband when he is in his office. He no longer has to be facing me for me to understand him. Previously it didn’t even matter if he was facing me. He still had to speak loud and slow, and sometimes that didn’t even help.

I am just thanking God that I have my hearing back. Even if it’s only for a little while, I will cherish this. Never take anything for granted. Enjoy it while you can.

    Praise the Lord. Glad to hear the good news. I saw Gary’s family the other day and Pam says “hi”. She said she can’t find your email, but I told her I could pass on your blog address if that is okay.
