Fifty years ago, Brenda K. had no idea she’d one day learn what loving someone with hearing loss truly meant until hearing loss and marriage became synonymous with her personal love story.
Brenda met Tom K. when she was in college, and it was love at first sight. He had a great sense of humor, was adventuresome and very sensitive. She knew after the first week they’d spend the rest of their lives together. Fifty years later, they’re still happily in love.
Their marriage wasn’t always easy, especially when it came to Tom’s severe hearing loss. There were times she felt guilty for getting frustrated with him because he didn’t understand what she was saying. It was often easier for her to write her hearing-impaired spouse a note so he could see what it was he missed. It eventually got to the point where she became his interpreter, fielding all his phone calls and speaking on his behalf.
Tom was trying so hard to hear, Brenda could just see it. It would wear him out. She felt so bad for him, especially when other people began to point out how much he was struggling. So, she finally said: “Tom, we have to do something.” And, he agreed.
Since getting his Cochlear™ Nucleus® Implant System, he’s doing so well. It’s amazing. She feels like he’s back. He’s her husband again. A big burden has been lifted off her, too. He can actually talk on the phone now!
