No more, "WHAT?"

Good New, so far SO good…the tubes work! Trey had his follow up visit with his ear Doc to check the fluid in his ears along with conducting a hearing test to see if the tubes are the solution to Trey’s hearing problem. I am so very happy to report that the surgery was a success! The doctor saw no fluid in Trey’s ears and he passed his hearing test as quickly as Trey decided that the test was over.

Mike and I along with numerous other family members have noticed an improved and immediate difference in Trey’s verbal skills, not to mention the fact that we haven’t had to answer the constant question “what?” every other time we asked him a question. We are all so happy to help Trey play “catch up” with his speech delay and already there is a marked difference in his annunciation. And to our surprise, we’ve even been told that swimming is fine even without the use of ear plugs – my how times have changed! This is great news for us and the Arizona summers, for we find ourselves in our pool daily, along with Trey’s weekly swim and PT lessons in the pool, he is always, always, always in the water. Unless something else comes up before then, we don’t see the ENT for another four months.
