Here’s the kicker: Specsavers in Burgess Hill isn’t just about eyes. They have an audiology department upstairs. My dad, a man who likes his TV volume set to “rock concert,” went for a hearing check. He came back looking sheepish. Turns out, his ears were filtering out his wife’s voice specifically. The audiologist called it “high-frequency loss.” We call it a survival instinct.
He got some tiny, near-invisible hearing aids. Now he hears the kettle whistle, but more importantly, he hears my mum asking him to take out the bins. He’s not thrilled, but the rest of the house is ecstatic. The audiologist was patient and didn’t shout. That’s key when you’re dealing with a man who denies he’s going deaf until the third time you repeat yourself.
