Hearing test at Nottingham FINALLY!!
Currently sat in a side room with Bradley while Daisy is laying right in front of us on the bed fast asleep. We finally got the go ahead for the hearing test! Daisy no longer has fluid behind the ears.
10:42 Brad has finally cracked and popped to Costa on the main floor as we're ridiculously starving!
12:44 test has finished for abut 30 minutes ago now. The results are very low/deep sounds can be heard in the right ear but at 95hb and the left ear has nothing at all.
Just waiting for Daisy to come round from sedation now which is a very long time. Doesn't seem to want to wake up at all. Hopefully she'll be awake in the next hour or so. She has to drink a bottle and be awake for one hour before we can go home.
We have the audiologist currently in the room setting Daisy up with all the wires etc..
she looks so peaceful! But don't know what I'm going to do for a few hours while she's having this test. Best thing about today is that we will find out if Daisy needs cochlear implants or if a hearing aid can work if it was higher setting. But he said more than likely she'll need cochlear implants because of it being cmv that caused this.
10:10 and the test has begun. Mine and Bradley's ears are going crazy already because we can hear the noises that are going into Daisy's ears.
Our tummys are rumblings as we've had no breakfast just a cup of tea.
Can't stop looking at her, she so beautiful when she sleeps! The audiologist even said she'll probably sleep for 4 hours now maybe 5! Bouns! But I'm very much looking forward to her being awake so I can see that cheeky smile of hers.. il keep you updated!
Daisy still fast asleep, not even flinching. Audiologist is happy with the results so far her obs are still perfect. So all happy and really good. Daisy literally looks like a radio DJ with the head phones on.
I keep hearing children coming round from there sedation! Sounds horrible! I bet it's weird for a grown child than it is to a baby. Feel so sorry for them.
11:12 we have some results but still doing more. The audiologist said there could be something in the right ear. But not good enough for her to keep hearing aids. But definitely nothing in the left. So basically cochlear implants will be the way forward. She was twitching abit when he went to 95hb, so he thinks it could of been the right.
Doing the last few tests now and then we will have a verdict!
Really good results! We can have COCHLEAR IMPLANTS!!! We're so happy!
13:35 Daisy is finally awake! Took some going to get her to wake up,but she's up and was smiling away at us! She literally looks drunk, her eyes look so heavy and she's so floppy!
13:50 She drank all her 9oz bottle. Still not herself, her eyes look very sleepy and she's just a dead weight when we pick her up. But I'm happy that she's now awake..
Just waiting until 15:00 I see if she can get discharged then.
Positive outcome and can't wait for the next 3 weeks to fly by so we can get our date for the operation!!!
