You can try it out yourself. I feel bad for you, but music can still be enjoyed monophonically and with one ear. You will not be needing stereo anymore, though, since that's a two-eared illusion.There are some guys that lost a lot of hearing that enjoy this hobby. Some also have tinnitus, hyperacusis, or other problems. Good music is more in the head than in the ears, anyway. But your priorities might shift in terms of sound quality versus performance quality in your title selections.
Best of luck to you. I think you should think all is not lost. One ear is better than none.
