Clearly, today's HA's are much better than those were, from what I'm reading! 
My loss in that ear ranges between 95 and 110 depending on the frequency, so I don't really think it's likely to help much, but you never know...

My hearing is 90-120 depending on the frequency from 250Hz-1500Hz...then no reponse beyond that. I get benefit from aids. Environmental sounds, and even some speech. I can tell if someone is calling my name...and I can respond to simple one word commands.
My latest joke is that I am like a dog. I come when called and sit too!!!
