My deaf dad

My father was totally deaf in his right ear and profoundly deaf in the other. So he made himself an electronic hearing aid, before there were such things.

In the morning, before he had his hearing aid powered up, if you put your mouth up to his ear and shouted you could talk to him. Well, at least, you could tell him something - sadly conversations were not common.
