....Something I forgot to post previously...In terms of a time frame, we are hoping that Ellie will be able to have a cochlear implant sometime around March.
I also wanted to let you know about a video that I saw on "youtube." Go to this link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iCZ3CBmYZfw . This is a video of a baby that has a cochlear implant. She is at the doctor's office ready to get her cochlear implant activated (turned on.) So this video shows her being able to hear for the first time. Warning: Be ready to cry! (at least I did) :)
In the meantime, we hope to get Ellie's hearing aids in the next couple of weeks. But I also wanted to ask everybody to just pray for a miracle. I not only pray for one everyday, but I'm always watching Ellie to see if God gave us a miracle. I know that God is able to heal Ellie! On the other hand, He also made her with these ears that are so special, and I know that He has great plans for her. Anyways, that's just my way of asking everybody to please continue to pray for a miracle...Thanks!
That's so cool, Julie! I watched a few other ones too. Seems like they could maybe come up with some nicer noises to make for their first sounds :) But I bet that mother has never been so happy to hear her baby cry!
