The Joy of Hearing is Something we Really Love Sharing

“Man

YouTube has some videos you really should check out. After getting fitted with hearing aids, a 7-month-old baby hears his mother’s voice for the first time. His smile is enough to bring you tears of joy.

Videos like this one are numerous online. You can share that special moment with the child, the parents, and their physicians.

In some videos, the baby is reluctant at first. They fight when the doctor attempts to put the device on their ear. They might cry before they smile with joy. They are overwhelmed by a range of emotions. They’re not sure what’s happening. But then, with restored hearing, the world opens up for them.

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

Does the idea of wearing hearing aids make you anxious? You’re not by yourself. People of every age can be a bit anxious about this.

Let’s explore how people of all ages might cry tears of joy when they wear their hearing aid.

Music to Your Ears

You might not have even noticed. It developed so gradually. You don’t listen to music anymore. It just didn’t seem as enjoyable anymore. Sometimes, it was even grating. 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.

Every musician knows that the notes blend together to make a unified sound that resonates as waves move into your ears. If you can’t hear the magnificent complexity of music, it’s just not the same.

But wait, now you put your new hearing aid in. Now, those tones which were once muted can be vibrantly heard. The power of music is back in your life. It becomes a fantastic pleasure in your life that you’d lost.

The Laughter of a Child

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

Reestablish your hearing with hearing aids and rediscover those magic moments with your grandchildren.

The Beautiful Sounds of Nature

Remember all those birds in your yard? If you go to the park there will be hundreds. While some of their chirps are more pleasant than others, it’s something you may not acknowledge until they’re gone.

But the birds are still there. These joyful sounds of nature once tremendously enhanced your life, but now you don’t hear them because of your hearing loss.

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

Repaired Relationships

Neglected hearing loss can put substantial strain on relationships. People become frustrated. There’s misunderstanding leading to more disagreements. Frequently, so they don’t feel like a burden, people with hearing loss will go into seclusion.

They frequently feel alone and disconnected from other people’s discussions causing them to avoid going out to dinner or other social activities.

Have you quit hobbies because they aren’t as satisfying?

The simple act of getting your hearing back will breathe new life into your relationships with loved ones, siblings, children, and friends.

Learn to talk to each other again. Talk for hours. Get back to doing the things you love and being with people you love.

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

Feeling Safer in Your House

Do you feel anxious about what you can’t hear? If a loved one was injured and yelling for help in a different, would you be able to hear them? A doorbell, oven timer, or smoke detector…could you hear them? Would you miss an important call because you didn’t even hear it ring?

What about oncoming traffic when you walk through the neighborhood, or a bicycle bell, or a pedestrian signal? Are you sure that you can hear these essential signals?

These “what ifs” can make us feel vulnerable in places where we should feel totally comfortable.

But when you use your hearing aid, you can be more relaxed, and enjoy life to its utmost. You’ll have peace of mind.

You Might Not Know What You’re Missing

In most cases, hearing loss develops gradually. You might have simply forgotten the pleasure of things you can’t hear anymore.

When you suddenly hear them again, you’ll be astonished. You’ll regret neglecting it this long. If you don’t believe your hearing loss is that bad, it’s time to get it checked. Call us to schedule a hearing test.
