My daughter Erica was diagnosed with bilateral sensory-neural hearing loss when she was just two years old. Hearing aids have been her connection to the world, allowing her to communicate, succeed in her career, and live independently. Now, after more than twenty years, Erica is facing the challenge of replacing these essential aids, which have become part of her daily life. Living in Milford, she works full-time, and between paying off her student loans, rent, insurance, and car expenses, the cost of new hearing aids is daunting.
Erica's resilience fills me with pride. I see how diligently she manages her responsibilities, determined to maintain her independence. Despite her efforts, affording new hearing aids on her own is overwhelming right now. Your support would mean the world in helping Erica continue to engage fully with the vibrant life she has built.
