What's The Plan??

I spend a lot of time compensating for my loss of hearing. At meetings I've learned to sit in strategic places. I tend to move around so I can have the best listening angle. I've learned to do many thing to help myself in the last two years. But, I do think about the next stage of my life. As I get older the task of compensating will get harder. So "What's the Plan'? Do I learn sign language? Some people I talk to about that look at me like I'm crazy. Am I? Am I crazy to worry about loosing even more hearing? I don"t think so. Loosing 50% was bad enough.
