He understands you are talking to him and the words said but he said it is like it doesn't reach his brain. 3 yrs. ago went thru a stint surgery and coded on the table and paddles were used and he lost half his hearing and wears hearing aids now also). I think it may be a medication side effect or long term use, not sure but he said he didn't have it until a few months ago) Any ideas
