So today we took a little trip for all the pre-implant testing on Gage's "other" ear. He did booth testing with and without a hearing aid. He said he couldn't hear sound but could feel them without the aid. When he put an aid in, he couldn't hear much with it at all, and certainly didn't know what he was hearing. He said it was like buzzing, he had no idea what people were saying. We go back on Wed. to the surgeon and will likely know next week if insurance is going to approve it quickly so we can have surgery on the 12th. If not, it'll be later in Feb.

I hope you were able to get a loaner aid! Does he still have to do the "trial period" with the aid? Best wishes for a speedy process!
i am so happy they can give that first ear another go...not has happy as you are I am sure!
sending all those positive thoughts your way that the insurance company gets it stuff together and approves this for the 12th!!!
