Hi my name is Bridget, I have been hesitating on doing a post like this because of being nervous. I finally got the courage, so I'm asking for help with something that deeply affects my everyday life, "My Hearing". Believe it or not, I have tears in my eyes just by writing this.

Hearing loss has made conversations, social moments, and even simple interactions challenging and isolating. Having the right hearing aids would truly change my life, helping me reconnect, communicate clearly, and stop feeling like I'm in a world by myself. I want to feel present again. The thought of losing my hearing completely terrifies me. Being hearing impaired has created a barrier for me. I distance myself from my loved ones and friends because it's a challenge to be included in simple conversations.

Unfortunately, hearing aids are very expensive and not fully covered by insurance, if at all. Any support, no matter how small, brings me closer to hearing better and living life.

Thank you so much for your kindness and support.
