Ellie got her new hearing aids this week, and I have to admit... I am impressed... They are little, the are not intrusive, they dont stand out... and they are pale pink!!!
These hearing aids stay on alot better then the last one we had, which was a bone conductor. They are quite easy to put on (although Ellie doesnt like the process of getting them on) however once they are on, they dont bother her at all. I havent noticed a drastic difference, so time will tell. They are going to follow up with quite a few hearing tests with the hearing aids on, to make sure they are set up correctly and working properly, so this can take time.
Ellie is still a little bit unwell, Doc says slight bronchilitis, and possibly asthma, as Ellie tends to get bronchilitis alot in winter. As the weather is not being kind at the moment, and is absolutely freezing, Ellie and I are spending alot of time indoors this week, and only venturing out if we have too... I am hoping that this together with the meds, she will be better soon.
Here are some pic's of Ellies hearing aids.
The hearing aids look great!
ReplyDeleteHope she is feeling better very soon. xxx
Congrats on the new hearing aids - they look great. I hope little Ellie feels better soon. :)
ReplyDeleteThose hearing aids are gorgeous! I hope she is feeling better soon. Ryley used to get pneumonia every year for the first 4 years of his life. WHS kids seem to be susceptible to respiratory illnesses.
ReplyDeleteThe weather is sooo cold hey? Ballarat has been flippin' freezing LOL!!
Those look just like my daughter's aids, except that hers are purple with pale pink molds. Cute!
ReplyDeleteThe hearing aids look great! And I love the new picture of Ellie on your blog page-- love the hat! I hope the little sweetie feels better soon and kicks that respiratory bug out of her system for good!
ReplyDeleteJasmine use to have little pink hearing aids like that too!! Glad they are working well for her! Jasmine hates getting her hearing aid AND her CI put on, but once they are on she will keep them on for a bit! Same with her glasses, hates getting them put on, but once they are on she seems to be ok for a bit! Maybe its the getting held while its being done? LOL, who knows with these little ones!
ReplyDeleteI hope Ellie grow up like a normal child. With the advancement in technology, I think she can cope up in this world and with the help of the people surrounding her.
