Virgie Bell's View: Part Three

Now, on to family news ... .De'on made me sound just like the crazy old aunt in the attic from my last novel and I am not deaf any longer as I have the latest thing in hearing: the most expensive hearing aids that money can buy. I now join the hearing society. I didn't realize the rest of you had to put up with so much background noise.

I want to wish my sister a very HAPPY BIRTHDAY today—November 21, 2006. [Publisher’s fault that it is now a belated wish.]

I will be looking forward to seeing all my family on the 23rd of December, as usual ... .I want De'on to post Kayla's picture of her in her last recital, so everyone can see how absolutely beautiful this girl is. I also wish Kayla would dance for our family on the 23rd, as she will have a dance down-pat for her Christmas recital.

Kayla, I really want you to do what you are comfortable with Angel Pie, but everyone was so disappointed last Christmas. We are your family, and that is what dancers do, is perform for an audience.

Well, De'on, Steve, and Greg are determined that I be profiled for Gunz Up, so I just want to say right now, I don't know who to name as my favorite author. I have many. I do want everyone to know that now, and then I will do a book review on something I've read. You can just skip it if you’re not interested.

I know Kayla and De'on will like the book I'm reading now, American Mourning, for it is excellent. I will say right now that Cindy Sheehan has always been nuts. When asked why she didn't put a headstone on her son’s grave, she said, “The military that returned her son’s body treated it like garbage.”

Cindy, unless you want to treat the site of his resting place with disrespect, then get a headstone and treat it like the resting place of the hero he really was, and in the meantime, shut up, or else SUPPORT OUR TOOPS!

What make are your hearing aids and have you worn any other manufacturers'?

What? You mean De'on isn't your favorite author?!!! Well, just for that, you will not be considered for the 2006 Donna Reed Best Mom Award. Oh, and I had such high hopes for you winning this year!

Dear Anonymous,

Virgie Bell will give you an answer today. She knows the make of her current ones, but I don't think she remembers the names of her older ones. She has had others previously and she told me the brand of her new ones, but I've forgotten it already.

She'll be on the blog later in the day and will answer you. She also has a post that's nearly ready.

We were out of town for Thanksgivng, and will run more about our wonderful day later.

I hope your Thanksgivng was great?!

My current hearing aid is a GnReSound and I am thrilled with results although I still suffer hering lose the others were Rexton and and Sanyo of various sizes but Ireally was for all intents and puposees deaf. My lose of hearing was from medication I was taking for a skin infection which I found is not unusual and happened instantly. I found that while most hearing lose is temporary mine is permanent. I hope this helps you.
