she might need a hearing aid.  Not quite sure how to approach her, he called

The doctor told him there is a simple informal test the husband could7 y/ c& _5 n/ J! M( @2 A+ C4 n5 w
perform to give the Doctor a better idea about her hearing loss.

That evening, the wife is in the kitchen cooking dinner, and he was in the/ y: g0 j. R) f
den. He says to himself, "I'm about 40 feet away, let's see what happens.", ?2 q2 U; q, [# B

No response.
