Thank you, Denise… isn’t it interesting how she recommends hearing aids not just on the degree of hearing loss we have but also on how we’re actually functioning with the hearing we have! Turns out audiology is science AND an art!

I had my first hearing test last year when I had a feeling that hearing in my right ear was diminishing. Turns out both hears have some hearing loss, though not enough for hearing aids, yet.

Thank you, Elizabeth; I, too am glad I got that baseline. So glad you enjoyed the interview.

Getting hearing aids was the best expenditure I ever made because my hearing loss was, over time, negatively impacting both my social life and my work life. Don’t wait to get help, and don’t let the cost prevent you from getting the help you deserve early on.
Obtaining the base line early in your life can help you and your doctor plan when you absolutely need to get the hearing aids.
Because I had a baseline when I was 40, I knew I had lots of time to start saving my money bit by bit.
Most of us will never be millionaires because of our music, and yes, hearing aids are not inexpensive, but hearing music is the joy that will keep you going.

My husband and I are at the age where our hearing is definitely decreasing, and the advice to get a baseline hearing test even if you think you’re a long way from needing a hearing aid. Thanks for this very clear and professional advice.
