Where we are at

We wanted to let everyone know what we have been doing the last few months in preparation for Landon to get cochlear implants. He had a sedated ABR which tested up to 105db and he showed no response. In everyday terms, sound would have to be louder than an airplane for him to be able to hear it. He had an aided booth test where they tested him for reaction to sounds with his hearing aids on. He seemed to react around 75db so at least we know the auditory nerves are getting some stimulation from wearing the hearing aids. He had a CT scan done to check that everything internally is there for him to receive CIs. We are still waiting on the results from that - hopefully we'll hear back from the surgeon this week with the news. Once we get the okay from him and a surgery date we will be submitting everything to insurance for approval of the bilateral CIs.
