Well today we went to get mom's hearing aid. I hate to admit it but it is as much for me as it is for her......... the TV is set to a volume that you can hear throughout the house....... 20 is what it says. As soon as she goes to bed I drop it down to 7 or 8..... as you can tell its about 3 times louder than necessary. I occasionally use ear plugs just to be able to tolerate the sound. I hope she will wear it at least while she watches TV.
Well so far so good, she has had it in for about 3 hours and currently the TV is set at a volume of 11 and she is perfectly happy..... so am I ☺ We stopped at Arby's to celebrate her new ears and she was all worried about how she would be able to eat...."now, will I just use this side...(meaning the hearing aid side) I reminded her that it affected her ears not her mouth.
When we got home she needed to use the restroom, she became a bit flustered about "how was she going to do this now?" She was rubbing her belly and scared to take her pants down because she wasn't sure what to do now.....LOL...... poor thing thought her bathroom routine would be totally different. I stayed while she finished to reassure her that it is OK....
Everything came out fine !!!! ..... sorry I couldn't help the horrible pun !!!
This blog is to help share my adventures, yes adventures with my Mom's dementia and to help keep me as sane as possible... not saying much!! We shall see how this goes and where it winds up. Kinda like walking in a blizzard wearin' white...
