That's what my great grand kids check first thing when they come over. "Do you have your hearing aids on?" And I always answer with "Huh, you talking to me?"

@Fred Ciampi- Well played! I'm currently breaking in a new pair, which is what inspired this cartoon.

My aging father steadfastly refuses to use modern high tech hearing aids and I think he's well beyond them doing him any good now; but as a more tolerable step when really needed I did try a "personal amplifier". As soon we had it working pretty good, the first thing he told me was "I don't need this"; and that was that.

Lord, how I love the aging process. NOT

@Rod: Up until two years ago, I was one of those too stubborn to get hearing aids. When I finally got them, I could not believe how bad my hearing really was. (I did have a suspicion though). Anyone on the fence about them should go for an exam and you may be tremendously grateful, as am I.

A running debate around here between the DH and I has been (me) You mumble! and (him) You are going deaf!
So I went in for a hearing test. Turns out I hear better than most women my age!
He mumbles. I won.
