Fall is prime time for large family dinners and friendly gatherings!

Having an upcoming holiday celebration or “friendsgiving”? If you have hearing loss, pick a seat towards the middle of the table where you can clearly see the other guests’ faces. This should make it easier to hear and easier to lip read if needed. Also, don’t forget your hearing aids! They can make mealtime conversations much clearer and more enjoyable!
