He will be missed. But... he a great life.

If the hair cells are restored and you have that type of loss, yes, it would cure it. At this point, they are not saying everything will be restored. I'm sure that is a goal, but it has not been confirmed yet. We have to wait until after the trials. Fox, good point about SSDI. I wonder if that...

From the article: "The way a man spends his money is a reflection of his sincerity and character," said Brandon Wade, CEO" This is a myth.

I'm on the fence about wired alarms. If you lose power, you still need the alarm(if there isn't a reserve battery). I'd to 50/50 battery/wired. Also, I'm looking into wireless connection to other alarms.
