I got a viral infection in one ear and went to the ENT doctor, who confirmed my deafness. I asked him what he thought the chances might be of getting any part of my hearing back, and he said, “About one in a hundred thousand”. I said “Great!”, and he asked why. I said that it’s much better odds than winning the lottery. He said that he’d never had any patient look at it that way….. It’s all perspective, I guess….. 8^)
