Zoom discussion Saturday January 3 at 10:30 a.m.
Two happiness resolutions for 2026: forgiveness and gratitude.

It wasn't rational, but I blamed myself for my hearing loss in the beginning: I was deficient in some way. I felt my friends and family must regret having to accommodate me. Today, I am.....mostly grateful. How about you?

Discussion hour - Church Accommodations
Two churches have asked me how to best accommodate members with hearing loss who can’t hear the sermons. I’d love to hear if any of you have ideas on solving this conundrum.

Zoom Casual Discussion: Friends and Relationships. Saturday March 1 at 10:30 a.m.
Hearing loss can impact our relationships, as we all know:
Do you have a small group of friends and other relationships you can count on?
How easy or difficult is it to make new friends?
Do you think you have lost or made friends because of your hearing loss?

Main Topic: Hearing loss can affect personal and work life

According to Better Health Channel, hearing loss can affect a person in three main ways:
1. fewer educational and job opportunities due to impaired communication
2. social withdrawal due to reduced access to services and difficulties communicating with others
3. emotional problems caused by a drop in self-esteem and confidence.

Have you experienced any of these? And if so, how have you dealt with it?
