Hi Linda: I am Linda also. Like you I am completely deaf in one ear (L). It happened when I was 16 year old. All at once. Though I had a bubble in my ear as I had just gone swimming. It last too long for a bubble so Mom took me to the Dr. He said I had nerve deafness. It obviously has never returned. Never suggested an aid as my right ear was fine. So the nerve never got any stimulation. I am now 73 and am wearing an aid in my right ear as the hearing has been declining in that ear for years. It very bad actually. So I do the best I can, even with a cross hearing aid in the (L) that transfers sound to the RIght aid. Very difficult and frustrating. I know how you feel Linda. I wish there was a group near by where we could actually "socialize" and compare notes. Reach out to me any time Linda. Be well.
