I had good news today.
I finally decided to call my hearing aide provider today. Thought I would ask him if there was a generic hearing aide out
there, among the ones advertised for $20 – $50, that would give me decent amplification. When I described what had
happened, the receptionist looked for my name on her computer and said “Mrs. Hutchinson, your contract covers the loss
or damage to your hearing aide for a period of three years.” Needless to say, I am elated!! There is a $200 deductible,
but it sure beats the $2000 I would have needed had the clause not been in the contract. I honestly did not remember
that was part of the contract. Some days good things do happen to dumb people.
