Pati here
Talked to Amber a little more today. She said that since they told her, she's been watching and it's obvious that Samantha is not hearing a lot of what is said to her, but does hear louder deeper noises. She is a very verbal baby in that she makes a lot of babbling noise, but I know that unless they can do something to help her hear, that will slowly disappear. I think they can perhaps help with the hearing but there is a two year wait for the speech part of it. I thought of Sandi and we'll keep that in mind. The next assessment is in two weeks, and ther isn't much that can be done until then.
