After refusing hearing aids in her early adult life, she came to terms with needing help 5 years ago when she received the ADHEAR, and has not looked back since!\n\n"I love the ADHEAR, it’s my little buddy! Small and discreet, fully hidden behind my ear and under my hair. No surgery, no pain but lots to gain!"\n\nJoin Allison in this webinar as she discusses her experiences of living with a hearing loss, how she came to terms with needing help with her hearing, learning that she had a cholesteatoma in her ear which needed surgery, and the impact it has on her career, hobbies and everyday life, followed by a Q&A session.\n\n DTSTART:20230624T093900Z DTEND:20230624T093900Z LOCATION:Online END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
