I'm very sorry to hear that.

I have slightly impaired hearing as I said before and it can be a little testing at times but you will be able to live a normal life trust me.

You do need to start really looking after your hearing though, keep ipod's etc on a very low setting and if you are going to gigs etc make sure you have good earplugs in, the kind that fliter out the bad stuff and allow you to enjoy the music.

I also have to wear plugs and pump up outside, as a precaution myself as any further hearing loss for me could become problematic.

Take care of yourself .
