Test Results

Our test results from Mara's sedated test confirm what we knew. She has sensory neural deafness. She cannot hear anything. We follow up with a doctor on the 30th.

Easter 2012

My crew, Easter 2012.

Wow, that was fast!

On the first day of my spring break (April 2) I went to the Social Security office to fill out paperwork for Mara's SSN. I was told in a few weeks you will get her card. Ok, no biggie. Imagine my surprise when on Saturday the 7th I had that precious card in my hand. Well played, government office, well played.

Appointments

Ever since the insurance card came we have been unstoppable with appointments for Mara. First up was our pediatrician, then audiologist/ENT. The audiologist and ENT both confirmed what we knew, Mara cannot hear. Our next stop is for a sedation test or ABR (Auditory Brainstem Response). After that we see Dr. Benson, a neurotologist, and he will discuss the options available for Mara.

Let me just say the Mara picks up signs so very quickly. It boggles my mind. She also had her evaulation with Help Me Grow, the ladies were very impressed with our girl.

Front Door Test

Imagine you've just bought a cute little home, and you want to paint the front door to change its character a bit. What color do you paint the door?
Yellow
Red
Green
Blue
Orange
White
Purple
Black

I chose black (which is still up for debate in this house):


You are elegant, fashionable, and quite intimidating.You wield a lot of power. And that's what scares people!You are reserved and difficult to know.Those who know you know that you are strong, consistent, and reliable.
