Crap I forgot...

A note from the nurse was sent home with my kindergartner letting me know I need to have his hearing checked. My thoughts were whatever he doesn't show any signs of having trouble. He talks well and is doing well with sounds and reading (well with school altogether). But I took him to the doc anyway cause they asked for the note to be sent back with the follow up info. Turns out he does have hearing loss. It is in the moderate range. I asked how much and its 50 decibels. Well how much is that compared to normal. About half. To me that is not moderate at all. That is a big problem. I have all kinds of questions but I am only getting general answers. I wasnt really too satisfied with them. But we did get some nasal spray and a allergy medicine. There was a little bit of water in his ear that may be causing a problem. We want it cleared up before he sees the specialist on the 29th. I am not real excited about this. I am nervous. I am making the hubby go with me to this appointment. I hope that this is not permanent loss of his hearing and that it is not progressive. Since the first appointment I have noticed that he ask what alot but that could just be me being paranoid.
