If you are hard of hearing you may understand this entry. If you are not familiar with listeners with hearing aids it might be informative. I am now totally deaf. Working near the flight deck and flying in helicopters with no hearing protection helped me on my way. LOL Fortunately I have implants that allow me to hear one on one. The problems listed here still apply.... If you are interested try this:

Hearing loss with higher tones

this is what I face. If a woman is speaking hear Charlie Browns teacher, especially if they are excited and speaking rapidly. I love music but so many worship leaders/teams are made up with tenors and sopranos. The words are distorted. Add this to the increased volume of many of our churches, it causes bouts of dizziness.

I laugh at myself. At one time I played the Trumpet. I give that as a reason I know the words to only one line of every song, wind instrument players follow a tune. I realized my hearing was GONE when after church one night I asked the piano player the name of the last song after the alter call, it was not what I was playing. I left the trumpet on the seat and a few weeks later a young man ask could he have it, I said of course. He began to play in church I was blessed, but missed being a part..... Very Happy
