People always tell me to just get the tiny, invisible hearing aids. I can't, and I never could.

The style you can wear is set by how bad your loss is, not by how it looks. With profound loss I wear behind-the-ear aids with a fully sealed mold, the most visible option there is, and the severity makes that choice, not me.

Fourth grade was my best school year. It took me years to understand why.

My teacher was a man. For the first time, I could hear without hearing aids. Lower-pitched voices land in the frequency range my ears can actually process. Hearing loss isn't uniform. It's frequency-dependent.

I kept my hearing aids in my school desk. Never took them home.

When you've never had perfect hearing, you have no comparison point. The loss didn't feel like a loss. The solution didn't feel like a solution. I rejected the thing designed to help me for twelve years.
