Not being able to see or hear can be very frustrating, especially for a little baby that does not know how to express himself and say what he wants. Little Jimmy was born with a unilateral cleft lip and a bilateral cleft palate. Due to his cleft palate, excessive fluid has been building up in his ears he has been diagnosed with moderate severe hearing loss in his left ear and mild-moderate in his right ear. The only perception of his mom was the visual, as he could not hear her due to his hearing problem. Mommy was a familiar figure, but not a familiar voice. Wanting to help him, his parents took him to the doctor’s office regularly where tons of control checks were done and eventually at the end the problem got to its own solution. Four moths after he was born, the doctors managed to get him bone conducting hearing aids that were going to help him hear better. The whole family went to the doctor and a pair of hearing aids were fitted on his tiny head. After the doctor put them on, he could hear his mom’s voice for the first time in his life. What a smile on his face. The whole Universe got to its own place after hearing his mommy clearly for the first time. The smile on his face says it all!
