I know how she feels. I was born without functional outer ears or middle ears. Thankfully my middle ear works and the bone conduction devices are amazing. My only real complaint with them is the preasure from the band I've had to wear which results in some painful migranes after long use.
Hopefully she'll be able to get the operation you mentioned.
Sarah had a titanium post implanted into her head and the BAHA Divino snaps onto it. She also uses an FM system in school. It's all so awesome! Send me your e-mail and I'll send you pics of her new medpor ears.
@daydreambeliever91 It took me until I was about 13 yrs old. its really hard to speak and understand the english for hard of hearing people. I believe I still speak little bit slurshing but people told me your speaking fine. They dont want to hurt my feeling. well.. im 32 yrs old. Im ok now. I guess. haha
How great that you adopted and older child with a disability. It seems many regard Chinese baby girls as a type of designer must-have when there are many kids in need of a home who are older or come from more impoversihed parts of the world.
Sarah has Bilateral Microtia/Atresia, no ears or external ear canals. It allows her to hear thru bone vibrations sent directly to the cochleas. Today she heard quacking ducks passing over for the first time! This hearing aid is a miracle!
Is it true that alot of deaf girls are called Sarah? Because I'm deaf and my name is Sarah. (:
