Well, it was fun while it lasted. For the past 3 days, I've been wearing a "demo" hearing aid that the ENT specialists I've been seeing have loaned to me. I've been able to hear better than I have in YEARS (definitely better than since the accident!) problem is.... That was the high quality option they have, and knowing worker's comp, they'll be pulling shit. so, I'm not going to settle for anything less than the high quality option and my family and mates agree. If they want to fight over it.... I'll show them exactly how hot this dragon's fire breath can be.
