Karate practice
Posted by Les under: Ears; Karate; The Daughter; Therapy .
So last night at karate, it was so darn loud in there. We only had 5 adults for the family session, and I could not hear a thing. I finally stopped the instructor after and told him, it wasn’t that I couldn’t do what he was saying, it was that I couldn’t hear him. He thanked me for telling him. He said he had worked with deaf students before, so he knows how to make it so that I will know what he is saying. Not that I am deaf, but man, last night I sure felt like it. I don’t like this not being able to hear stuff. I have my follow up hearing tests next Thursday. They only do the tests in the morning, so it was today, Monday or next Thursday… and next Thursday won since Monday is a holiday (and I have kick boxing) and today didn’t happen since K has therapy.
Speaking of therapy, our therapist is leaving the practice. So now we need to pray about what direction we want to go. K has a really good bond with her, so it is a matter of do we want to start over or do we want to follow her. Yah, there are hard feelings going on in that office. I do know that the new office is a lot closer to our end of town, so I am going to look into that. I have them almost all paid up current, so money wouldn’t be an issue either. Personally, the therapist has been more on top of K’s diagnosis than the doctor. I am not sure which way we are going. If it is up to me, I know what I will do, but there are more than 1 factor. Ken is on the same page as me though, so that is good!
