I agree with you there... I know it is impossible for him to hear certain sounds with his aids. And regardless of how much amplification, I know he probably won't have access to those sounds.
I'd love for him to listen and speak... but I know that may not be possible. I'm being realistic too. I'm 100% fine with ASL... I am encouraging him to learn it... but I'd love to hear his voice one day too!
Faire_Jour... you said your daughter had better hearing and got implanted... how is that possible? Where are you from? Strict candidacy?
