Jax, that’s such a shame, my dad has matching digital aids now having got 1 to see how he went a year or so ago. It was less than 6 months from going to the Dr with “I can’t hear what my grand daughter is saying to me anymore” (and those of you who know the child in question will therefore realise just how deaf he had got…) to having the first 1 fitted. Can you not stomp feet a bit here?

I’ve only just seen this post.

I’ve given up going to hearing services or whatever they are called. All they do each time is check my acuity loss, tell me its the same/worse, they can’t do anything, come back in 6 months. That seems a waste of my time and their resources to be honest so I don’t go anymore.

Well, I think it would be a great idea if we had a national health service.

Thanks for the first decent giggle I’ve had all day

And over here, everyone thinks a national health service would solve all our health care problems!
