@frozsquash Your story reminds me slightly of my daughter's. I recognized her hearing loss before the doctor would confirm it or send her for hearing tests. Her loss at that time was not severe though so her speech and language had not been compromised, she was actually above age level -- I guess I was compensating by speaking a bit louder when I was talking to her. She got hearing aids when she was 4.
She was great about them through grade school but did suffer from some bullying in middle school and HS, and started wearing just one aid so she could push her hair back on one side. When she started college she knew she had to be able to hear everything so she did resume wearing two aids.

@mmyatt01757 How would we work together? Are you thinking of a chapter in NH too, that would be great. Portland is almost two hours from me, we were just there overnight on Friday. Let's PM to discuss further.
