Someone tell me how wonderful they are...and how your kids just put them right on and never took them off. Lauren needs them. 3000 dollars. Mild hearing loss even with new tubes in. Sigh.  |

Hey Renee.
Ashleigh wears hearing aids. We only wear them at school, though. She doesn't wear them any other time. When she first got them, she did GREAT!! I think she was so amazed at how well she could hear - she would tell everybody "I got hearing aids!!!!". Unfortunately, that wore off pretty quick. They're more of a bother now!! And at school, they have to take them out a couple of times a day like when she goes to PE and when she goes to computer lab ( because they wear headphones). Just stick with it - it's not easy. Ashleigh has had five sets of tubes and the ones she has now are permanent.
Our hearing aids were $2000, and they came with insurance in case she lost them, but they will only replace them one time, which thankfully, we haven't had to do that yet!!
Good luck - I hope she does great!!
