As we get older we begin to have difficulty hearing clearly and we typically just accept it as a normal part of aging. Maybe we begin to turn up the volume on the TV or keep asking our grandchildren to speak up when they’re talking to us, or perhaps we start to forget things? Loss […]
Don’t take your eyes off the road. Of course, it’s good advice, but it doesn’t say much about your other senses. For example, think about how much work your ears are doing while driving.

It’s true, hearing loss can catch you by surprise. But there are times when hearing problems suddenly pounce you like a cat instead of sneaking up on you.
