Hearing Earring's make the "Grade"


Fast forward six weeks and through some "aches and pains" I am happy to say that Trey's hearing aids have resulted some fabulous results. Let's just say that my "bee-line" to acquiring the hearing aids came about after the first week of 1st grade when Trey's homework packet contained spelling words. My first thought was if he can't sound out the words or read the words how in the heck was he going to be able to spell them???!!! That was honestly the first time it hit me that I was no longer going to accept that Trey's hearing didn't go deeper than the hearing tubes and that his "in-complete" hearing tests were not only that. We needed to take this hearing issue to the next level in order for Trey to succed in the 1st grade and have a chance at functioning on grade level. My thought process was this...if MPS IV has no brain involvement than there should be no reason for Trey to be behind academically. I am so happy to have been pushed to this next phase and ecstatic to report that Trey has receive no less than a 90% on any one of his spelling test thus far!
