    I have only started wear hearing aids in the last 5 months. I’ll wear them after work ( when I remember to put them in). It sucks taking them out at night when you go to bed. It hits home how much loss a person has.

    It’s ok mate. Hamish is one of my best cobbers. He’s just poking a bit of shit at me. It’s what we do.

    But I agree. I didn’t realise how deaf I was. It pissed my kids off, my missus and I didn’t realise the cognitive strain it put me under. I’d be exhausted after work...the strain of listening to people took its toll. I thought I couldn’t hack it but once I got my hearing sides it made a massive difference.
