“The old grey mare ain’t what she used to be”…. :)

This is what one of our 94 years young patient said today as she came in, before sitting in my office. She and I share the same birthday 40 years apart and have enjoyed our visits for many years. Moments like these are truly special. The pictures and stories that we have shared connect us to much more than a patient and an Audiologist. We consider each other friends! Somehow we always find a way to wish each other a happy birthday each year.

What a great lady and an amazing sense of humor. She’s always ready with a smile and kind word. She is slowing a bit but her smile and laughter is amazing. It’s realizations like these that make a career fulfilling.
