I am becoming hard of hearing as I get older. Truth be told I have been having problems hearing since I was 12 years old. 2020 hasn't been easy either. All the masking due to COVID means that when people are talking I cannot read their lips. I find it is easier to understand what people are saying when I can see their lips moving.
I should probably get a hearing aid... But I am in my 40s and I don't want to. Not yet.
But I am researching what it might cost when it comes time to get a hearing aid, possibly in my 50s or 60s.
I know a place in Woodbridge where I can get a free hearing test, and there are also free online hearing tests I could do...
But I am not ready to do that yet.
In the meantime I have been reading articles on the subject and doing research. So sometime soon I think I will go get that hearing test. Maybe in 2021 when the COVID vaccines roll out and things go back to normal. Or relative normal. I suspect this pandemic might last longer than we might think.
If you think you've suffered hearing loss you should probably get a hearing test too. You could do an online hearing test right now if you wanted to.
