Thought my wife might be loosing her hearing.

[Jmax]

I have been talking to my wife and she has not been hearing me. When I spoke to her about it she denied it. So I decided to put it to the test. I got about 40 feet away from her and said, "Honey, what's for supper?" Just like I expected, no reply. I moved a little closer and repeated, "Honey, what's for supper?" Again,...nothing. Moved a little closer, said it again and still, no answer. Now I am like 10 feet away, "Ah babe, what's for supper?" She turned around, looked at me and said, Lord have mercy, for the forth freaking time, Spaghetti!" emoRolleyes Jmax

I use to have that problem too. Finally a buddy of mine showed up one day at my house with one of those Hunters Ear hearing aids he wears when he is deer hunting and he told me the try it out. I put it on and he asked me a question in a normal voice and I answered it without saying huh first for him to repeat the question. It was my hearing that was going bad. I went to see about getting hearing aids and I about passed out when they told me how much they wanted for them. I came back home. got on line and ordered 2 Hunters Ear units from BPS and been using them for about 10 years now and even with buying the batteries for them I am still about 2 grand away from what those hearing aid comanies wanted for theirs. Some buddies have ask me why I don't get those hide in the ear kind and I said because these work just fine. I don't care who knows I have hearing issues that I need to hide them in my ears. No Vanity in me at age 70..............LMAO

Well that was about the amount they wanted to charge me and to date, I have not spent 500.00 on my 2 units and batteries in almost 10 years. I noticed the other day that the ones I bought have gone up about $30.00 each since I bought mine but I think more and more folks are doing what I did and Hunters Ear is selling a lot more units than they once did and the Batteries have gone up a little, but not much..............lol
