Impactful Story:
Ms. Li, 62, noticed a few years ago that she needed to increase the TV volume to hear clearly and frequently asked family members to repeat themselves during conversations. Believing this was a normal part of aging, she took no action and gradually withdrew from social interactions. During a World Hearing Day awareness campaign, she learned that while hearing loss is irreversible, it can be effectively managed to restore normal life. After being fitted with hearing aids, Aunt Li regained her cheerful personality and reconnected with those around her.
