Hi @dudelee1933 I’m so sorry you’re experiencing hearing loss. I can’t imagine how frustrating this is for you. Have you seen an audiologist to have your hearing checked or fitted for hearing aids?

Bluffing can get you into big time trouble because people think that you are not comprehending communication. I encourage you to go to an audiologist to get your hearing checked. Find out if a hearing aid might help you. I have friends who are in their 90s who have hearing aids, and one got a cochlear implant three years ago when he was 90. Have you had your hearing tested?
