Tom, I would have said that growing old is a part of life &amp; that it happens to everyone, but you know that already. What I will say however is that you have done more with your life - been to so many places, learned so many things - than most people I know. I would like to thank you for all the wonderful videos you post (from which I learn quite a lot), &amp; just ask you to keep on doing what you are doing - regardless of how well your hearing is.
