"WHAT SHALL I DO IF I LOSE MY HEARING SUDDENLY?
SSNHL is a medical emergency, can result in permanent hearing loss, and requires swift attention. If you have sudden loss of hearing, seek immediate medical advice from an audiologist or go straight to an emergency department or an ear, nose, and throat (ENT) specialist. Prompt action and treatment with steroids may improve the chance of reversing the hearing loss. Patients should request an emergency audiogram because it often provides evidence of SSNHL and can rule out ear wax or other possible causes of hearing loss."

On this day... 19 years ago 246 people went to sleep in preparation for their morning flights. 2,606 people went to sleep in preparation for work in the morning. 343 firefighters went to sleep in preparation for their morning shift. 60 police officers went to sleep in preparation for morning patrol. 8 paramedics went to sleep in preparation for the morning shift. None of them saw past 10:00am Sept 11, 2001. In one single moment life may never be the same. As you live and enjoy the breaths you take today and tonight before you go to sleep in preparation for your life tomorrow, kiss the ones you love, snuggle a little tighter, and never take one second of your life for granted.

COVID-19 taught us all the importance of washing our hands thoroughly for 20 seconds; about as long as it takes to sing “Happy Birthday” twice or recite your ABCs. Do you use any other songs to time your handwashing?
