Can actually take quite a while for the shape of the ear to be alright enough for the gunk to get out.. All the best bud.. It's heart breaking when you can't do anything for them..If you ever need to talk about kids growing up with hearing difficulties hit me up.. I've lived with next to no hearing most my life.. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know its only hearing and things could be worst. but after talking to a few people and my old mate google I have read and listen to a few stories and I should be on the good side of things. just alot of my friends and family have had a few babies recently and it's amazing how many problems have popped up in the last decade. scary actually.

As were a couple other blokes here..I'd never say 'it's only hearing' though I guess the good thing is the little ones learn to live with their hearing and they never knew what it was like before..Have you been referred to neurosensory for another test?

Friend of mine nearly lost his little guy to meninga menangitis a fee months ago... Unfortunately his little guy (same age as Hud) picked up the virus from an unknown source and has now lost hearing in one ear from it... Not an entirely bad outcome considering they were telling him and his wife to sort out funeral arrangements a month ago. It's so scary ... Until u have your own you never understand the love and effect it has on you and as much as u think u can never love them more then you do right now... Somehow you love them more. and more every day. Welcome to parenthood dude... I really help all works out... Keep us in the loop Ye. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can rest easy that the technology around these days can overcome just about anything, and like Panda mentioned dealing with things like that from infancy is minimal fuss because he knows no different. But fingers crossed it comes good as it most likely will. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hated getting kicked out of the hospital at night.. But next morning I was there waiting for the doors to open..Tab is right though. Technology for ears is friggin unbelievable these days..Grade 3 I used an FM kit which was a mic on the teacher which fed to a receiver which I wore on my back (yeah it was that big).. Which fed to my hearing aids so I could hear the teacher..Now I have hearing aids which I can stream music to directly from my computer that you can barely see I am wearing.. And I have a mini mic I can leave anywhere in the office and listen in on people's conversations from afar,. I mean I can put into the middle of a conference table so I can hear what's being said. And the best part they are completely controlled from my iPhone.. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They never pick on her, never give her a hard time, nothing. Beautiful. I made the mistake of attempting to speak to her in her bad ear, and her friend very politely told me "speak in her other ear mr shrek!" and all was sweet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
