Convention cancelled- news came Friday - sad

Never use aids in pool- just behind folks- lipread. Interesting mishaps - but I make humor is part of my conversation.
White water rafting without aids- was an interesting but hard situation and I was on the level whereas I should not not have been- advanced High level- Fun never-less - lost my shirt literally -
As for Connect clip- should work with family- setting check up with your audiologists if you can. . I had to be creative thinker- my t coil helps in restaurants with tv. I know - I told my former audiologist this years ago- fascinating to her- but it has helped .
Check and see if there is an HLAA chapter in your area- very worthwhile group. Or maybe a bunch of you can set one up-

@bookysue my HAs never never gets submerged intentionally. I have slipped two times and my HAs got wet but they recovered immediately. Many hearing aids are fine with that.

There are no HLAA chapters within an hour of me. The closest has meetings at night. If they was during the day I would consider going but not at night.
