My Hard of Hearing Life
"This book contains short stories of my experiences with hearing loss. Having a hearing loss is nothing to laugh about, but humor should not just entertain, but enlighten, and inform.

Some of the stories are embarrassing, and some vent my frustration at normal hearing people totally clueless about hearing loss and the behavior of a hard of hearing person. It's okay to laugh when you read my stories, as long as you're laughing with me, not AT me." - Introduction.

This volume is the product of that study.

Others may not want to deal with the stigma that they and society may associate with needing hearing health care and obtaining that care. Still others do not rec...
