Hello. My name is Khalil Barnett. I am a deaf English teacher in need of an assist for new hearing aids, as they are quite expensive and not covered by insurance.

Recently, after a lifetime of being angry and frustrated over my deafness and it's inevitable social challenges, I embraced deaf culture and began the journey of learning sign language. I still rely on hearing aids for life and work (which have to be updated every few years to accommodate my progressive hearing loss).

Unfortunately, as the technology compatible with my degree of loss advances, so too do the prices for every upgrade. Right now, I am in need of the $4,898 for the specific Oticon hearing aids appropriate for the current severity of my hearing loss. Please help me reach my goal ASAP, as the situation is tenuous and time sensitive.

With love & gratitude,

Khalil Barnett
