Hearing loss is one of the most frustrating things to have as people get irritated when they have to repeat, as it is not an obvious thing. I applaud you guys with that affliction dealing with it.
Uh oh! Will Earl tell Nelson to give them to Opal or will he just enjoy watching her look for them….Will he move his lips with no sound to drive her crazy? LOL

Sure, a nice ring, but the people who need them can’t appreciate it.

Be careful with them, they cost about $6000 – $8000 and a lot of insurance companies won’t cover the cost.

No, actually it DOESN’T have any kind of “nice ring to it” at all.

Since I’m just about to the point where I need them, I’m glad to have a different term to use to name them!

When my daughter was 5 years old, she called a backhoe a “shovel-bucket.” Actually more appropriate.

In a parallel universe(s) maybe if it can happen at all in some set of universes it will. Most won’t.

Good one. Most folks have phones that are walkie-talkies for sure.
