@everyone Thank you!! Alex is doing wonderfully. He loves hearing and already we\'ve gotten several clear words including \"mama\". He\'ll have his permant ones next week and the volume was started out at low and will be gradually increased so that it won\'t shock him while he\'s learning to hear. We will post pictures after he gets his permant hearing aids. He looks like a cyborg now with tubes dangling everywhere!


@cfwheeler Gimme your address!! It was partially damaged in shipping and I have a few things to send back your way along with a thank you card from Alex.

@Dragonsreach I\'m glad its cheered for you too. As for the non payers, they can\'t ever bid on anything I put up again and Alex has his aids which is the most important thing!

-$288.28 from people who did not pay (one even resigned from eBay to avoid paying).
Gutless heartless F*cks :flame: Is about the level of contempt I hold for people like that.

I couldn\'t agree more DR... I hope they get something slow, painful and terminal.

This whole thing was for such a good cause that any kind of rip off is just unconscionable. :mad:

Hi to All,

I am sorry for the delay in this post but wanted to update everyone who helped with Alex\'s hearings aids as to his condition.

Alex has had his permanent hearing aids for almost a month now (barring several problems such as one of them not working and needing to be remade). As you can see from the photograph, they are quite inconspicuous which will help him later when he interacts with a group of other children and has helped him to avoid stares from adults now. Being a friendly child, he cannot quite understand why they look at him so intently when he tries to be friendly. We couldn\'t care if they looked like those massive headphones from the 1980s; we just are beyond belief in the difference they make in his ability to hear. His vocabulary increases each day by leaps and bounds and, for the first time, he can interact with us using words. He\'s gone through the babbling stage and is back to simple sentences and the occasional full sentence. A massive improvement from silence! For some unknown reason, his hearing, when the aids are not in, has increased since he had tubes put in his eardrums and he has been wearing his aids. During his final hearing test he was tested both with and without his hearing aids. His hearing loss, without aids, has decreased from 50 dbLs to 30 dbLs since he got tubes and received his hearing aids. Why no one can say. With his hearing aids, his range is 15 dbls (average is up to 20 dbls) which means he in functioning within the normal range. He\'s got a lot of catching up to do, but is learning quickly. He\'s already learning to re-label things that were set in his head, such as all children were \"babies\" but now they are \"girls\" and \"boys\", even if it took a little girl his age being offended at being called a \"baby\" for him to want to make the distinction.

We cannot thank all of you enough for helping us give Alex this chance to hear so much sooner than we could have done on our own. The past few months have been a whirlwind of tests, adjustments, language lessons and watching Alex experience a hearing world without being scared by it. We are deeply touched by your generosity. Thank you very much!

Maya~

It\'s great to hear from you with an update on Alex. It seems he\'s learning fast, not just new words but that girls can be very sensitive regarding their age. lol
