Deaf nine-month-old boy hears his mum and dad for the first time after surgery
This is the adorable moment a profoundly deaf nine-month-old boy hears his mum and dad for the first time after surgery.
Everett Colley was born unable to hear, and had to learn sign language to communicate with his parents Ashley and Zachary, 29 and 30.
The tot underwent cochlear implant surgery with Cochlear Americas, and two weeks later had the exterior part fitted which allowed him to hear.
When he first heard his parents speak on Monday (20/12), he beamed and nuzzled his face into his mum's chest.
Ashley, from Yorktown, Virginia, USA said: "I think it's mainly my husbands voice that he seems to hear more than mine, but for him to hear that and go to me for comfort it's beautiful.
"I'm sure most people's reactions when they first find out that their baby is deaf are like ours, it’s a horrible thing.
"But it's not, it's really beautiful, he has a whole outlook of life that we don’t."
The video was filmed on December 20 2021 at 10am.
