EDHI is a GOLD mine for hearing people in field like many medical profession and butt in many Parents way like they are a failures. They create many scare tantics so parent can cling on them for a longer period of time... really SICK....

@ttirremerritt Thanks for ur comment. Recently someone told me their parents were forced to sign a form by their surgeon stating that they would raise their child oral / aural only in order to get CI. 2nd time i've seen such statements. Once re: NM doctor and now this one re: Indiana i think the person said. it appears parental choice is largely a farce and it will become harder and harder for parents to truly choose. The systems r very big and relentless. tis a pity for sure
