So happy to hear about your decision. You are one of the smart ones. They say the average person waits 7 years before acknowledging hearing loss or getting aids.
It’s absolutely correct that dementia can set in earlier if the loss goes unaided. Much luck with your new “life”.

Happy hearing

Thanks; that's good information from you. 7 years of additional declining mental ability is more than I can afford to lose. Unavoidable "natural" aging dementia is frustrating enough.
