A little history


We have three boys - Connor (5 years old), Garrett (3 years old), and Landon (9 months old). Landon failed the newborn hearing screening in the hospital. We went for a repeat OAE at 3 weeks which he also failed. At 5 weeks he had an ABR test which showed he has profound bilateral sensorineural hearing loss. Having no experience with hearing loss, we had no idea what this would mean for our son and began to search for as much information that we could find. After looking at all the options, we decided the best thing for our son would be bilateral cochlear implants. This blog is a record of our journey to bring sound to Landon.
