Good morning!!!!

Jay they went over all the newest over the counter devices and which ones work. They will put the PowerPoint presentation up in a few days. If you are not quite ready to spend $2500 these can range from $100 to $500.

Does anyone have insurance that covers hearing aids?

Mine doesn’t cover them.
We have a Sams club in town and a BJs about 25 miles away, no Costco.
Went to eat Chinese with friends tonight, brief shower but still humid.
BEF, keep getting better.
Prayers for all.

".... The person was on ventilator to breath, and they just had to let it take it's course. He told me he thought the guy would die. But he said he ran into that guy later, he had mostly recovered, but it took a long long time."- BEF Good luck with the STD transition to the LTD process. Your benefits which you deserve and the effective management of your neurologic pain may take a long time in coming. I had a similar experience and recovery. Having had 16 maybe 18 IV lines via 3 maybe 4 pic's going into me and living on a ventilator machine for +2 weeks put a new perspective on life. Once I could start breathing to some degree on my own I could make that ventilator machine literally rock I looked like a fly caught in a spiderweb; but many years later I am here posting. I really hope and pray your docs figure out the driving forces soon. Something is messing with your auto-immune system functions. You posted a pattern about late afternoon symptoms. I hope today was manageable. Good luck.

Got my wife's hearing aids. Thinking of taking them into Sam's Club to see if they can be cleaned and programmed to my ears. I actually hear pretty good except for sounds that are close to my tinnitus.

Same here, Ron. While I have quite diminished level in my left ear, the range is still pretty even until it gets up around the squealy range of my tinnitus. My Wife will often ask me about high-pitched noises, which I almost never hear.

We still occasionally get hearing aid stuff in the mail for her grandmother, which she usually just slides across the table to me.

Just had a small pop up shower. Congrats on your rain, Buppies.

BEF, was thinking of you this morning on the interstate on the way to Virginia Beach...saw a window sticker on the back window of a big Ford pickup...said Mission BBQ...turns out you went there today.

Glad to hear from you CWB Wyo. I love snow, but it is just a bit too early for it.

Rick, I'm the Orioles fan...but was an Astros fan growing up as a kid, so still pull for them, except against the O's. BTW, Pitchers can't bat, even in the NL...well they bat, but don't hit. Verlander grew up and played in high school about 20 miles from here...glad he went to the Astros. Did you see a new single season home run record was set last night? Turns out it was an Oriole that hit it...his bat will go to the hall of fame.

Anyone a Veteran, retire military, try the VA, from what I gather Hearing Aids are free.

Something to think about.

Busy day that I didn't get much done just one of those days rain on and off every time I went out to do something. Brushed the dogs, repaired the pressure washer.
Did watch a Yankee Double header not doing to bad this year for mostly a second string team
Well think it's bed time before I start watching an Audie Murphy movie.
Hope for nice weather tomorrow so I can test the pressure washer.

No doubt that NYY, Houston and LAD are the best teams this year, and it’s true that the Yankees still have 12-14 guys on the DL. Sometimes the chemistry is better with the backups, they have the best record in the MLB so something is working.

Oops ... I was thinking it was BEF.

"Turns out it was an Oriole that hit it."

Had to look that one up.

Not sure anyone can catch Pete Alonso and Mike Trout.

My dad has VA hearing aids. They are the older analog type, nothing modern from the VA. I think if he had a good set, it would help him a lot. But he wont spend money on them if he can help it...
