Weesie uses a hearing aid. She wears it on a headband that holds it in place against her head. Weesie doesn't mind wearing her headband, but it's getting old and stinky, and it gets in her way. When her doctor tells her about a special operation that can help her hearing aid stay in place on its own, Weesie is curious. But is she ready to have an operation and get rid of her headband for good?

Join Weesie as she learns about implant surgery and makes an important choice for herself with the help of family, friends, and doctors.

___________________________________________

Note to the reader,

The bone-conduction hearing device on a headband can help support the development of language and the brain before the child is old enough for implant surgery.

Some children and adults wear the soft band for years or even their entire lives.

Now retired, Dr. Gord was an internationally recognized plastic surgeon offering surgery for the bone-anchored hearing implant and ear reconstruction to this patient group.

The approach to Bone-conduction hearing may vary depending on the region and surgeons.
Readers are encouraged to contact their local audiologists and physicians to understand the options available in their area.
