Linda's Story

Linda was getting frustrated because she could not hear or understand anyone she encountered. She was having trouble joining conversations with her family and friends and missing a lot of what was said. Communicating with everyone was becoming very difficult for Linda. She was always asking everyone to repeat things and kept saying "huh" all the time, so she decided to reach out to Miracle-Ear in Butler, PA. Miracle-Ear Hearing Specialist Marleen Hoffmann tested Linda and confirmed the need for hearing aids but quickly determined that the cost of hearing aids was out of her reach, so she applied for assistance from the Miracle-Ear Foundation. Linda was approved and fitted with donated hearing aids as well as life-time aftercare. Linda loves her new hearing aids. She is so excited to be able to hear her family and friends. The TV volume is down, and she can understand what is being said. Linda is so grateful for the help Marleen and the Miracle Ear Foundation has given her with the gift of sound.
