Well I did it!
After years of “huh”, “ what did you say”, and the TV up so loud the windows rattled, I did it.
I got hearing aids.
I can hear my cell phone ringing. I can even understand conversations now.
A buddy of mine asked, “what does your family think about them”. “I don’t know” I replied. “I haven’t told them yet.”
“But, I have changed my will three times. “
O.K. so that’s a joke.
What’s not a joke is our classmates are dying off every year.
The reunion committee is meeting Monday, August 3rd at the Big River Grille, Hamilton Place, Chattanooga, TN, at Noon. We are trying to come up with an appropriate way to memorialize our fallen classmates. If you can, join us. No reservations needed. Just show up.
If you can’t join us, email your thoughts to me at NormanRMiller@yahoo.com. We need all the help we can get.

Hello Norm--A quick note for you and all other hearing aid users: most all aids now can add a program called telecoil which can interface with an apparatus called a loopset. My hearing is bad enough that I had to give up on a cell phone, but with this thing (I wear a thin wire around my neck which broadcasts to my hearing aids from my phone)and voila, I was back on the line. Try it! Ain't elderhood great! Ross
