We saw the cochlear implant specialist on Mon. and the appointment went well. She ordered an MRI and CT scan of Marygrace's ears and brain to help determine if she will be a candidate for the cochlear implant. Marygrace also saw the audiologist in the afternoon and received her hearing aides with hot pink swirl ear molds. Scott says she likes to wear them because she thinks they are pretty accessories or jewelery! She actually has been doing really well keeping them in, but it's only been 24 hours. We think she is responding to some sounds, but it is really hard to tell. We will see an auditory-verbal therapist on Thursday and the audiologist will retest her on July 23. They do not expect her to improve very much with the hearing aides, but we need to try them to prove to the insurance company that cochlear implants are medically necessary.

Have a Happy & safe 4th of July!!!
