I am hoping some of our senior members here might be able to shed some light on the merits of this device
http://www.mdhearingaid.com/acoustitone_pro
I know this aint a substitute for getting ones ears tested by a professional etc but this is as a step towards that direction.
I am dealing with my Dad here who is 96. He has been to the ear docs and had his ears checked twice paid a small fortune once to have wax removed then next to have a growth removed. Now nothing i can do will get him to go back and he does not feel spending the coin on getting a hearing aid is worth it at his age.
I have tried every trick in the book to coerce encourage motivate him to do it right and nothing will budge the stubborn old mule in him. Not even an appeal from grandson.
So i managed to find this device which looks to me like a compromise and i have managed to coax a promise from him to wear it. I am hoping if he hears the benefit he may be prepared to go the next stage.
So before i pull the trigger i thought i would check our forum and see if anyone has tried this device and had any luck good or bad with it.
Its not big bucks to get the ball rolling they will also let me pay from Canada and ship directly to him in SA so all i need to do to make it happen is hit the keyboard.
Thanks for any replies and input.
