Hearing pain in the month of Shravan (2)

(Continued from past)

Fear grew in Ka Nama. I kept going back and forth to see the doctor. In two or three days, the awe started to grow so much that it seemed to ring in my ears. I started to feel like my voice had changed.

I asked my wife for sure: 'Do you feel any difference in my voice?'

'No, why?'

'Then why should my voice sound different?'

"It simply came to our notice then. The rest is fine."

His wife's reassurance did not change anything. The illusion that deafness was on the rise in the ears began to be proved.

The wife asked one morning: 'Making fists today? Fists? '

'Who brought the knots?' I asked with a grin.

'Oh no knots, fists .. mu ... thya.' The wife said aloud, parting the letters.

'Yes, yes, fists .. then say that?'

The matter was settled. But in the afternoon the bell rang. The wife listened. The wife opened the door. Tell me: 'The courier has arrived.'

'Puppy. Where did the puppy come from? Take it out or it will go home. '

The wife rang the bell and explained to me that the courier is the courier. The mail has arrived.

'Is there a courier? When you say that! '

One evening the mobile arrived. I picked up the phone.

'Hello, hello. How are you rajnibhai Sister in law I speak Pankajbhai. '

'Hello, hello Champakbhai! Oh how are you Many times .. your phone rang. In simple fun. '

'Who is the beneficiary? Hey I speak Pankajbhai Pankajbhai. ' He said loudly on the mobile. The wife immediately took the phone from my hand. He says to me: 'Not Champakbhai, Pankajbhai's phone.'

My Shravankumar's turmoil increased.

The wife says nothing and I hear nothing. Sometimes the blind man started beating the deaf. So I decided that what I really needed to do was learn how to do it right.

The wife asked: 'Bring the paper? Will you write and talk? '

'Where do you need to come from? Just bring the paper. You do your job. '

Our handwriting lasted a little longer. But it didn't work out.

The wife says: 'It's not fair.'

'Don't you think so?'

The wife was annoyed. Tell me: 'Your ears are getting deaf. Let's see a good doctor. You will not be heard every day and I will have to shout. Neighbors will peek into the quarrel. '

I checked. Wife knowingly. Tell me: Show the ear to a specialist. An E.S. Is a doctor.

Surprisingly I asked: 'Anti? What kind of anti-doctor is that? '

The wife wrote in Gujarati on a piece of paper: 'Eye, ear and throat specialist doctor.'

I refused in panic. 'No, no. The big doctor straight

Don't show your ear to such an 'anti' doctor as he will rush the operation and take a heap of fees.

Our blind deafness began to grow. An acquaintance of ours came to visit.

Feeling my deaf ear, he says: 'Look, there is no need for a doctor. You can get earphones if you don't hear well. Putting the wire and mic in the ear will make it clear and clean. And in five or seven thousand the matter will be settled. '

'like this ?' I asked hopefully: 'Which doctor can I get it from?'

The friend says: 'Stop worrying. I will arrange. He knows the ear-filling machine and will bring it himself. '

I asked hopefully: 'Really?' If you are so kind .. thank you very much. '

Seeing my need, he brought the brother the next day. Aye was a doctor. He peeked into his ear and then said: 'It doesn't matter.'

It filled the machine in my ear. Tell me .. 'Listen now.'

'Yeah! Absolutely clear. ' I said enthusiastically. A doctor like a compounder said .. 'I don't have that business. But this is what my friend told you, so he came. '

My friend says .. 'Don't take money by check. Just give him cash. '

We paid about seven thousand.

A little while, just a little time felt fine. But then the loud sound of the loudspeaker started ringing in my ears.

I told my wife: 'This machine is noisy. It sounds in the ears. '

The wife got annoyed: "You are in a hurry to talk about everything .. don't waste seven thousand now."

I called my friend. Requested: 'Please take this machine back. Even if you cut a small amount. '

'It doesn't matter. I will return the machine and take your money. '

We were happy .. but kept waiting. No such friend or no money!
