A tribute to my maternal Grandpa
Meet Harry
by Claire Tennant
I am exceedingly grateful for my hearing aid. It is tiny and a wonderful asset. I am still surprised at the clarity of sound heard when "Harry" is in use.
My Grandpa was called Harry. He had to give in, too. His profession caused his deafness. The day he received it, he was bothered by a scratching sound and mentioned it to his specialist, who did not know what "it" was. Dr. Helper continued to write his report. Suddenly, both men came to the same conclusion and laughed heartily because...
It was the pen against the paper. Bless you, Harry!
