“For my entire life, I have been almost completely deaf in both ears. When I was younger, I had numerous surgeries for infections, which resulted in nerve damage that can not be repaired. Although I can hear some low frequencies, I am almost completely deaf when it comes to high frequencies. Recently, I was again screened and told that there are newer hearing aids available that would amplify the high frequencies, while ignoring the low frequencies. The problem is that there is no way I could ever afford to purchase a paid of hearing aids and insurance doesn’t cover them. I hate begging or asking for help, but after a lifetime of the frustrations of not being able to hear, I need hearing aids.”
