yep, but our family is kind of used to it. He wasn't diagnosed until he was almost 3, and they still want to give the family a run around as to what kind of "treatment" is available for him.

After he took a fall on the playground last year, he was eligible for the cochlear implant on his right ear. But once he was in the operating table, opened up, they realized he couldn't get the cochlear implant in that ear. So he went home with nothing.
