The Joy of Hearing is Something we Really Love Sharing

“Man

Have you watched the videos on YouTube? A 7-month old baby hears his mother’s voice for the first time after being fitted for a hearing aid. You may find yourself crying tears of joy when you see his smile.

You can find countless videos similar to this online. You can share that special moment with the child, the parents, and their doctors.

In a few videos, the baby is hesitant at first. When the doctor tries to put the hearing aids in the baby’s ears, they resist and fight. They may cry before they smile with delight. A wide range of emotions overwhelms them. They’re not sure what’s going on. But ultimately, with restored hearing, the world suddenly opens up for them.

This happiness that they’re experiencing can be a reality for anyone.

Are you feeling apprehensive about wearing a hearing aid? You’re not alone. People of every age can be a bit anxious about this.

Let’s explore how individuals of any age may cry tears of joy when they wear their hearing aid.

Music to Your Ears

You might not even recognize the problem. It was a very slow development. You don’t listen to music nowadays. It seems like it used to be so much more enjoyable. It was even grating in some cases. Turning it up made it even worse.

The volume you hear is not the only thing that is impacted by hearing loss. Some wavelengths of sound are lost while others are not impacted.

Music is, as every musician recognizes, a beautiful blend of sound frequencies that meld together to produce the sound that we hear as…., well, music. If you can’t hear the magnificent complexity of music, it’s just not the same.

But wait, now you put in your new hearing aids. Now, those notes which were once silent can be vibrantly heard. Music again comes alive. It becomes a fantastic pleasure in your life that you’d lost.

A Child’s Laughter

Is the sound of a child’s laughter something you can remember? If you’ve been reluctant to use your hearing aid, you might have forgotten how amazing this experience can be.

Rediscover these magical moments with your grandchildren by restoring your hearing.

Where Did All The Birds go?

Remember all those birds out in your yard? There are hundreds if you walk in the park. While some of their chirps are more pleasing than others, it’s something you might not acknowledge until they’ve gone.

Except there not gone. These beautiful sounds of nature once tremendously enhanced your life, but now you can’t hear them because of your hearing impairment.

When you use your hearing aids, you again delight in the merriment of our feathered friends.

Repaired Relationships

Neglected hearing loss can put substantial stress on relationships. It can cause a great deal of frustration. They do not understand. They often argue more. It can even cause somebody with hearing loss to isolate themselves, so they don’t feel like a burden.

They often feel all alone and disconnected from other people’s conversations causing them to avoid going out to dinner or other social events.

Are hobbies you once enjoyed less fun now so you’ve given them up?

Your relationship with friends and family will be renewed by the simple act of using hearing aids.

Learn to talk to each other again. Talk for hours. Go back to spending time with your loved ones and taking part in activities you enjoy.

It’s time to consider hearing aids particularly if you miss these things.

Confidence That You’re Safe in Your House

Do you feel anxious about what you can’t hear? If a family member was injured and yelling for help in a different, would you be able to hear them? Could you hear the doorbell, oven timer, or smoke alarm? Perhaps you would miss a crucial phone call because you couldn’t hear it ring.

When you stroll around the neighborhood, are you confident that you will hear oncoming traffic, pedestrian signals, or a bicycle bell?

These “what ifs” can make us feel unsafe in places where we should be completely comfortable.

But you can feel more at ease and enjoy life more when you wear your hearing aids. You’ll have peace of mind.

You Most Likely Don’t Even Know How Much You’re Missing

Hearing loss advances gradually in most cases. You may have simply forgotten the pleasure of things you no longer hear.

You’ll be surprised when you suddenly hear them again. You’ll regret letting it go this long. Think your hearing loss isn’t that severe? Get it looked at. Schedule a hearing assessment and find out what you’ve been missing.
