I am sure there are many people out there with the same issue, why do you think it is a worthy cause to advocate AGAINST something that would give them that ability?? Why would you tell a parent to spend years using a hearing aid that could prove partially, or even completely useless? Why NOT give them to opportunity to hear 100%, rather than living with 50%?
