One of our favourite hearing aid stories is when we discovered that our son Connor had a knack for taking things apart. As Connor was diagnosed at birth he’s been wearing his little blue aids since he was 3 months. He’s generally pretty good about keeping them in! However one day I came into our living room to discover that not only had he taken them out, but he had completely dismantled both of his hearing aids. He had removed the ear moulds from the aids as well as the batteries and removed the tubes from the moulds. Needless to say that I could not put them back together again and we had to make an appointment to get them fixed. So we figure Connor will likely be an engineer or something because he was only 13 months at this time!
