“My poor hearing left me socially isolated”

Jenny Martin changed from social butterfly to ‘stay-at-home’ recluse – until she discovered the MICRO Ampli-Ear.

JENNY MARTIN enjoyed a long career as an events organiser. Conferences, exhibitions, corporate receptions, award ceremonies... you name it, Jenny could organise it!

When she finally retired, Jenny applied her well-honed skills to managing a very lively retirement. She and her husband James maintained a busy social calendar and Jenny took an active part in village life, also involving herself in community volunteer work. Whether it was running the village fete, throwing one of her huge garden parties or reading to toddlers at the local library, Jenny was always busy!

But Jenny began experiencing hearing loss. She found herself unable to follow conversations at parties and often pretended to hear what others were saying, to avoid drawing attention to her problem. At committee meetings, Jenny could no longer take part easily as she simply couldn’t hear well enough. Her husband complained that he had to repeat comments several times before Jenny would hear him properly. She dreaded picking up the telephone because she often could not hear the other speaker at all. Gradually, Jenny began cutting back on activities, she no longer hosted her popular annual parties, she dropped out of the village fete committee, the local WI and other social clubs. She began spending more and more time at home. Jenny was isolating herself. Her husband James persuaded her to try hearing devices but Jenny couldn’t find one to suit all her needs. Jenny explains: “I knew I had a problem and I did try various hearing devices but failed to find one that both worked well – and was easy to wear. Some were terribly fiddly to use, others were very uncomfortable and many were also awfully expensive. And some hearing devices are just so obvious and unattractive.

Yes, I confess to being a little vain! The last thing I wanted was a bulky plastic lump protruding from my ear. So I really just gave up and started to withdraw from almost all my activities. Poor hearing was making social situations difficult and embarrassing. This was a shock to my friends and family, as I am known to be quite the social butterfly!” “Thank goodness I spotted an ad for MICRO Ampli-Ear in a magazine. It sounded like the hearing device I’d been hoping for, but failing to find. As the testimonials were so impressive and the price was so modest, I did not hesitate in placing an order for two. And now? Well, I’ve got my life back! I just pop the MICRO AmpliEar in easily and enjoy crystal clear hearing immediately! The sound adjustment is super simple and changing batteries is no problem. It is so discreet and comfortable, that I actually forget about it. It’s party time at the Martin house again!”.

The MICRO Ampli-Ear hearing device is only available direct from UK Direct Shop. They are currently offering a discount on two, a reduced price of only £14.95 each. You can order on their free phone number 0808 156 4998.
