My wife is very soft spoken and even with hearing aids in, I don’t understand a lot of what she says. I am always saying “what”? That really ticks her off…she’s always looking at my ears to see if my hearing aids are in. The audiologist told me hearing aids won’t help with comprehension. Kind of disappointed they don’t seem to help in that respect. I wear them daily though and they do help with hearing.

Do you know which version/model of Phonak you got (from the VA?)?
