Our Zachary has yet to pass a hearing screening. We know that there is potential for him to hear in the inner ear, it is just not happening due to the fluid in his ear that is not allowing the eardrum to perform correctly. At 7 months, Zach had his first set of tubes. On November 11, 2010 - he had his second set and had his adenoids removed. And, then on November 23, 2011, he had his third set of tubes put in for a grand total of 3 tubes in his three and one-half year old life. We are keeping the ENT busy! We know that this is nothing life-threatening and are grateful that he can hear as well as he does, but we are sure hoping that these suckers stay in for awhile!
I took him by myself since this is old hat for us now. He did very, very well this time and we even went out for a lunch date afterward!
Prepped and ready, enjoying my toy!
And, after enjoying a nice cool treat! He wouldn't share with his monkey or his mommy!
