T is also for Three (week 3!)


The challenge continues. Despite the fact that week 1 and 2 were, by far, the hardest weeks I've endured in a very long time, week 3 still proved tough with some good days and some bad days. The highlight, however, was the fact that baby T. passed his hearing exam -- for which we were incredibly relieved. During his first few days in the hospital, his right ear had failed the initial exam and both C. and I were incredibly nervous of what that would mean (needless to say, with my raging emotions, I was a mess!) Although the audiologist mentioned that most babies pass the second or third time around (and the main reason why they don't pass the first time is usually because there is still fluid in their ears), the pessimist in me wondered if baby T. woud be the exception. Luckily, two times (and not three) was a charm for us as he passed his hearing test this week! What a HUGE relief! Yay!

Its put the past few weeks of challenges all into perspective!
