To hear or not to hear, that is the question??????

Cheeeeezooooo (japanese version of Cheese)
When Mom pokes that thing in, it makes my tongue poke out. NOT
(Note: Tomo is not sporting a tatoo or a booboo on his face)
Tomo finally has a hearing aid. We have truely been blessed by Navy Medicine and the docs taking care of Tomo and Juda. As dependants of a retiree, they don't rate hearing aids. Even if they did they are quite expensive. Keep in mind we aren't even sure Tomo needs it, so this is trial and error. So the doc that just retired ordered some to keep in stock, and they are loaning us this hearing aid, short term, long term, as long as we need it................we are so very thankful for this opportunity for Tomo. At first he cried when we put it on, so little by little each day we have him wear it. His ear canal is quite floppy, mushy, soft, causing sound waves a problem to get back to the ear drum. That much we know for sure, so we aren't sure if that is causing the hearing deficit or that he has a bad drum, nerve, etc.......Time will tell. Just like Juda's glasses, this device too will be a challenge to keep on, but we will persevere.
