Where do you get the money for these? I’m sorry but I’m really ignorant to how to get these. My husband has only received two hearing aids in his life and they were very expensive. He is completely deaf in one ear, repeated removal of cholesteatomas have completely destroyed everything in that ear. His hearing ear has been reconstructed due to cholesteatomas and have prosthetic bones in it and he has partial hearing in that one.
I don’t know what hearing aids would help him but we can’t afford much. We’re both disabled.

Renee, Starkey Foundation has hearing aids that are available. I will check this out for you. The local Lions Clubs have donated hearing aids. My husband and I went out all the time to fit the hearing aids from the Lions Clubs, but we were both degreed and licensed. Senior Centers also usually have someone who comes in for monthly testing and usually will work with you on pricing. Leasing hearing aids is also an option. I'll see what I can do, it helps to know what state you are in as the rules and regs are different from state to state. Gina
