[RESOLVED] [serious]hearing aid

[lilwupster]

Hi, my mom lost her hearing aid in the grass somewhere. I dont have a metal detector or anything. Is there anyway to find? Like you know when you hold a microphone to the speaker you get feedback. Can i do anything like that to find it?

umm never heard of that method :/ but if if this is a serious thread then put the [serious] tag

Method 1: Hands and knees.
Method 2: High resolution photo of the garden area where it was dropped. Blow up in photoshop.
Method 3: Play really loud music and wait for an old garden insect to come to you complain about it.

I just provided a solution to a real-life problem.

I think the first course of action for someone who loses a hearing aid in grass is NOT to instantly run off to find help without somehow marking the position they were standing at the time of the jettisonning of said auditory appliance.

she didnt know she had lost it until later

If I was your mother, I would be slightly worried that you needed assistance from an internet forum in order to arrive at that solution.

it was just luck that i found it. if there were an easier way i wanted to know. which is why i asked. so you dont have to go around insulting me for worrying about a $1500 hearing aid.

iPods are much cheaper.

Hearing is overrated.

This just proves that an event with a probablility that is greater than zero, no matter how close to zero it actually is, is still possible.

Logic and common sense are against the AUP.
