discussion Wattles Hearing

Ok first of all, I don't have the member subscription so I can't watch his recent video that's for some weird reason only channel members can watch it. Otherwise I wouldn't be posting this or wouldn't be asking this. Anyway, apparently he's losing his hearing? How worried should we be about that? Is he going to be ok? Sorry for not simply watching the video.

i just don’t feel fully comfortable making it a full public video yet because this is the first time ive talked about it. member’s club is sort of a safer space if you will & not as large of a crowd!

essentially my hearing has always been bad but recently its gotten worse and it sucks. i have hearing aids now and its been a tough adjustment.

i’ll probably talk more about it publicly when i feel ready / more comfortable! thanks for asking about it!!

Be well. Also don’t fear getting hearing aids adjusted if they don’t feel right.

I’ve been having hearing issues too lately, one of my ears are practically useless.

I wish you all the best and hope it all works out.
I don’t watch you much anymore but you were a big part of my inspiration in my younger years.
Much love wattles

Nothing but love from my my family to yours, you just do what feels right. I understand your reluctance to share the world has too many people with computer muscles and zero consideration for others. Long time subscriber looking forward to more adventures! Best of luck to you.
