I received wonderful news yesterday that I just had to share! Many do not know that I am hearing impaired. Due to a growth and surgeries, I am deaf in one ear and have lost about 43% in my other. Most insurance companies do not cover the cost of hearing aids because they are considered a "luxury" item. These same insurance companies do however, cover Viagra!! Go figure. But, I digress.. I have been trying to obtain a hearing aid because I still have what they call nerve hearing and certain hearing aids can help. I just found out yesterday that I may be able to get one of these hearing aids!!!!! I am so ecstatic! I can not imagine what it will be like to go in a restaurant and actually be able to hear, to be able to follow along in class.... Needless to say, I feel truly blessed right now.
I have been walking every evening again but I'm not losing any weight. I would like to join WW again, I seem to do well with it and like the accountability. We will need to see how money goes.
I just really wanted to share my good news!
This is WONDERFUL news! I'm so happy for you and hope you are able to get it. I had no idea that you were hearing impaired. My father was as well and you're right about restaurants. He avoided them after a while because it was just too difficult for him to hear what was being said around him. Thinking of you and will look for an update post that says you're hearing better :)
