To make a long story short, this woman ended up losing hearing in both of her ears simply because she didn't take care of them in everyday ways. Now, I know this story isn't typical, but it also isn't an isolated situation. I am writing simply to alert people to the importance of taking care of their ears on a regular basis.

You might be surprised how much loud noise affects hearing.
