On Wednesday, Jan 21, we all visited the California Ear Institute where Kai had his hearing testing and doctors told us what to expect.Kai very patiently sat through a 30-minute hearing test in a hot, stuffy sound booth while his sister, Wren, waited very patiently in the darkened outer room. They played a variety of sounds through headphones and through a bone conduction hearing aid on his forehead. Everytime he heard a sound he placed a peg on a tower.
Then, the two kids waited much less patiently while doctors spoke to us for about 45 minutes. They spun themselves on the doctors' stools and took all the stickers they could find and stuck them on all of the office furniture. Wren capped off the visit by running in circles around the patient chair in the center of the room. They were, um, just a wee bit punchy though I have to say I was moments from joining Wren in her laps around the room.
