Jack Williams is
an active senior who enjoys working with his hands. His talent for carpentry can be easily seen with
the additions he has built on his family’s homes.
For the past few years when listening to his
wife
and family, Jack noticed that he was missing parts of conversations. Voices in his favorite television
programs also sounded too low for him to hear them adequately. He sometimes found it difficult to hear
speech when traveling in the car, and when eating out with friends and family in noisy restaurants.
His daughters began to comment that it seemed like he was missing about half of their conversations.

Jack decided to have his hearing tested. After being fit with Breeze™ hearing instruments, he immediately noticed a difference in his ability to hear daily conversations. He can now hear speech much more easily, even conversations in large groups. He finds the Breeze hearing instruments effective when listening on the telephone, while driving in the car, and when going out to restaurants and the theatre. His wife notices how much lower the television volume is now, and even asks Jack, periodically, to turn the volume up!
Jack’s daughters notice he can hear all parts of conversations now. They do not
have to repeat words or sentences as much for him or speak louder than normal.
Jack
recommends to others to have their hearing tested since hearing loss can happen gradually over time.
He also recommends trying Breeze hearing aids, and especially likes how discreet his Breeze CIC hearing
aids are.

“It’s like the hearing aids are invisible. You don’t
even know that you are wearing them,” he explains, “and they make a world of difference.”
