Yes, aging is definitely no fun. I am 77 years old and I am losing my hearing rapidly. My wife is 71 and she wears hearing aids when she goes out mostly. So, you can imagine what kind of conversations we have while watching TV. Just the other night I thought she told me to "stand up" so I stood as quickly as I good, I thought she saw a spider or something. Well, she really said "shut up" so when I stood up very fast she thought I was really mad and one thing led to another after that.

I am basically home-bound, so I have decided to try a a pair of those over-the-counter hearing aids from Amazon just to keep peace in the family. Wish me luck every one or I am a dead man....See ya, I hope...Bill
