I took Fox in to his 4 year annual check up on February 20. He had to have a vision, teeth, and hearing test done in case he got picked to go to school for the Georgia Pre-K program. (Which he pretty much won't be picked because we are not in the right school district.) Well he didn't pass the hearing test in his left ear. It is a test where you have to raise your hand if you hear the beeps. They told me I needed to take him to a specialist to get checked.
So I called Shawn and told him Fox couldn't hear the beeps in his left ear and in the back ground Fox says, "I heard it mom." I asked if he heard in both ears and he said he did. I asked why he didn't raise his hand and let the doctor know, and he just said he didn't know. When I set up the appointment with the Children's Health Care of Atlanta, I found out he had to be sedated for the test, which I was not excited about. So today I went back to his regular doctor and had him checked again. I am really glad I did because he heard all the beeps in both ears.
So I am happy to say that I don't have to drive into Atlanta to have my little boy sedated for a test that I really thought he didn't need anyway.
