A man feared his wife wasn't hearing as well as
she used to and he
thought she might need a hearing aid. Not quite
sure how to approach
her, he called the family Doctor to discuss the
problem
The Doctor told him there is a simple informal
test the husband could
perform to give the Doctor a better idea about
her hearing loss.

Here's what you do,' said the Doctor, 'stand
about 40 feet away from
her, and in a normal conversational speaking
tone see if she hears you.
If not, go to 30 feet, then 20 feet, and so on
until you get a response.'
That evening, the wife is in the kitchen cooking
dinner, and he was
in the den. He says to himself, 'I'm about 40
feet away, let's see what happens.' Then in a normal tone he asks,
'Honey, what's for dinner?'

No response.

So the husband moves closer to the kitchen,
about 30 feet from his
wife and repeats, 'Honey, what's for dinner?'

Still no response.

about 20 feet from wife and asks, 'Honey, what's for dinner?Again he gets no response.

So, he walks up to the kitchen door, about 10
feet away. 'Honey,
what's for dinner?' Again there is no response.

So he walks right up behind her. 'Honey, what's
for dinner?'
