Recap: A Newlywed Nest & Trace put to the test

Gil and Kelly are taking Addallee to the audiologist and pediatric otolaryngologist for a check up. Addee was born premature with her cord wrapped around her neck. It cause her to stop breathing for a period of time but had no problems. Carlin helps her sister with her schoolwork and piano. Addee is described to be their miracle child. When she started school, they noticed that she could not hear what they were saying. With their daughter struggling to hear, Gil would talk to her and she would be fine. They did end up taking her to audiology and noticed that she could hear male lower range voices better than she could hear higher range voices. They ended up getting hearing aids.

Her old hearing aids were uncomfortable and would give a lot of feed back but the newer ones are better. She ends up doing a new hearing test and it comes back that she can hear but has significant hearing lost in mid to high sounds. The hearing aids will help balance them out. The doctor says that her hearing loss is stable.

Kelly has noticed an improvement in her daughter’s speech, hearing and everything. She doesn’t have to worry about her daughter’s confidence and feels better about herself. Addallee says that the biggest difference about her daughter’s hearing aids is probably that she doesn’t hear pick up background noise.

Meanwhile Josie’s friend, Samantha is coming over to decorate Josie’s new place. Whitney arrives to see the progress. Josie likes more muted colors than bright ones.
