Today Ben went to the doctor and had a hearing test, and his hearing was…perfectly fine. He has been taking mega-doses of antiobiotics to fight his chronic ear infection and we didn’t know if his hearing loss would be permanent or not. Today, however, he passed the hearing test and even miraculously passed a sight test with flying colors (Marti and I are both very near-sighted). Marti called me right away with the news and waves of relief washed over me. Ben still has fluid in his ears and will need tubes but his hearing is saved and I can’t describe what a relief this is. Praise God!
