> Did you hear that hearing aids are nothing but trouble? I don't wear them. My father does. He and my mother went to the Hearing Aid place. To fix them. They get fixed. It was bad weather. It was snowing. It was snowing a lot. My mother, spry and young-looking for her age was leading my father, who is not spry and not young-looking, at the front of the building. She fell. She felt a crack. She broke her hip.
3 days later. Picture it. Mother in hospital. Father at home. We're checking on him daily. I have the keys. I open the front door of the building. I ascend. I open the door of the apartment. It opens but stops. The chain is on. The apartment is dark. I call in. Helloooooo. Nothing. I call on his cell phone. I call on his landline. Nothing. Did he fall? Is he sleeping? Is he unable to hear me? I call the police. They come quickly. Break the chain and enter.
They return with an explanation. "Your father fell while trying to pick up his hearing aid."
Now both parents are in the same hospital. They are together but apart. I visit him a few days later. Still in the ER. Awaiting placement somewhere temporary. I talk to him. He doesn't respond. In fact, he doesn't hear me. I ask him if he can hear me. I say it louder. He responds no. He says "My hearing aid doesn't work."
And so I take a chair. Bring out the phone, open the eBay app and start shopping for Rookie Cards, all while lamenting how much I despise hearing aids.
