I thought going to the walk in centre would fix things but it didn’t. They ‘don’t do ears’ there apparently, so I’m still stuck with it. I’m putting drops in several times a day, but like the proverbial drop in the ocean they seem to make no difference at all. I don’t know which is worse, the inability to hear or the pain of being bunged up; I have to take painkillers before I can get to sleep.
But today I have decided to keep silence. This not only relieves me of the effort of trying to make conversation, it is also a yoga practice designed to take the attention within and away from external distractions. I am finding that quite peaceful.
