[Nfb-krafters-korner] OT hearing aid accessory

[slery]

I may have to sic you and Jake on my father. We are constantly telling him
to go back and have adjustments. One pair he had they automatically made
something like five follow-ups. He didn't pretty good with those and I don't
remember why he now has the ones that he does. I am pretty sure this pair
came from the VA and it is horrible to work with regarding appointments but
right now he might as well not be wearing them. We want him to get them
adjusted so we can know for sure if it is a hearing problem or a mental
problem.
