They continued their game for days, but Sandra’s parents
became frustrated and sad when they didn’t know what to do
and how to learn to communicate better with Grandma Rosa.
They tried shouting, changing the tone of their voices or leaning
closer to her ear when they talked, to no avail. Rosa could hear
some sounds clearly, but certain sounds she couldn’t hear well.
It became an everyday struggle for them to communicate and
they missed the comforting dinner conversations when they told
each other what happened to them all day. Grandma Rosa tried
to follow the conversation, but sadly, she couldn’t hear
everything that the others said or she misunderstood what they
were saying. It made the entire family feel uncomfortable
because they couldn’t continue their happy chats knowing that
she couldn’t hear them.
