Modern Technology has its Victories!


Adele, at Journey to Therese reported the wonder-
ful news that her daughter Therese now has hearing aids and the toddler is now transformed. Adele and her husband in the past year have adopted Therese from a Chinese orphanage. They have 3 other young children, one a newborn. If you've not run across her blog before, it's a real joy to read. I was fascinated going through all her posts a few months back on the lengthy adoption process they had with Therese - they'd only recently found out about her serious hearing deficiency and earlier this week the child received them.

So often modern technology can be used for bad things, which I won't go into here. But it's wonderful to see that a lot of times technology can change someone's life for the better.

Yes, Jackie: You did refer that that early on Fr. Tim's blog. How long has she had them? :-D I hope she doesn't do the "Gee, Mom, I must have had the volume turned down when you were bellowing at me to clean up my/our room!"

:-D

That is wonderful news!
My nephew is pretty much deaf, he has partial hearing in one ear and wears hearing aids. The ability to hear even a little has changed his life dramatically, even just in his development.
