Hi Lisa - by serendipity or the power of the Mighty Algorithm I came across your Substack account. The words "single sided deafness" jump out at me as I have been that way since about age 9. I got by OK until my formerly good ear started to go bad. That changed everything. Tinnitus is not my problem, but I know it is a nightmare for many of the hearing impaired. Actually, I do have an ever present high pitched whine, but it's not something I am aware of until I sit in silence. I am one of the lucky ones in that regard. So, just a "hello" and a tip of the hat for the work you do.
