Audiology assessment

I guess we weren't done with seeing specialists just yet.  After three visits, the audiologist determined that Auggie's left ear is fully functioning, but not so sure about the right ear.  Let me tell you, it's not easy to perform a hearing test on a 2 year old - near impossible!   Yes, they have toys and distractions, but as the mother, I had to constantly pull new tricks in order to persuade him to cooperate.  Although I'm reasonably sure that his hearing his fine, until he is older we won't know for sure. The good news is that his speech and learning should not be affected even if he has some sort of hearing difficulties with his right ear.
