THANK YOU! I can hear fine one-on-one, but if there is ambient noise like music or dishwasher, it's much harder to catch. Many times a day, family members start talking to me when I can't hear them and then get irritated when I ask them to repeat. I have asked if they would just say my name first and wait for me to tune in, but nobody has ever done this. These days I often just let it go and don't respond unless they request a response from me but it's not the best way to carry on family life. They feel ignored and I feel isolated.
