I had to hide my hearing aids from my dog who eats anything that smells like me. Watch bands...he leaves the metal parts, lol. Anyway I hid them so well I could not find them for 3 years. My husband did not notice but I could not hear and was not going to tell him since, my god they are expensive (I needed special aids for my music with directional control). I just found them!!! I can't wear them because the plastic parts that go around your ear have deteriorated. Need to get in and get them revved back up. This will be good to know, those batteries are expensive.
