As I grow older and slowly approach the lordy lordy look who's forty mark, I've found that my priorities have shifted. I'm deeply concerned about the choices that big business and our government will have on the little people. I'm not political, I just feel that we pay so much in taxes, social security and medicaid that it's only fair that we be given services that we pay for. Especially when we can't afford those said services. Hearing aids have plateaued to over $5000 per set. That is simply ludicrous. But at the end of the day, manufacturers have the right to charge whatever price they want. With that being said, if we pay a premium for healthcare Hearing Aids should be covered within that premium. Many healthcare companies cover fertility, adoption, glasses, braces, operations, the list goes on and on. But why not hearing aids. Please support me in spreading the word that Hearing Aids should be covered by insurance companies. If it's possible to hear with assisted devices, that Insurance companies should cover that expense. You can read about my struggle and what let me to this blog here. And if you would sign my petition by visiting https://t.co/dCKWC8XR3b it would mean sooo much to me. Enjoy your Thursday and when you hear cars driving by, your kids talking, the refrigerator door open, the music playing or the leaves blowing remember me and how important hearing is and should be for all!! #LIKESHARESIGN
