    If there were a cure for hearing loss would you take it

    This is a tough question. I would love to hear like I should but all the while I like that I can not hear that drive my family crazy. For me, if it could just cure me just enough that I could have smaller hearing aid and less power needed.. I think I would take it.

    My hubby is retired and you are right. I still get medical coverage from Tri-Care but not any coverage for the aids. My hubby on the other hand can apply for VA but has current excellent coverage through Tri-Care.
