I cancelled the ABR

I’ve been so uneasy about tomorrow’s sedated hearing test since receiving multiple parents of type 2/3 kids sharing their stories via comments here and in emails.  Then, I received this email from Dr. E., Hannah’s lead doctor:

“The sedation should not be a problem. However, the test is not crucial for her management at the moment. We could wait to obtain the ABR at a time when she may need sedation for another test or procedure. If you would like to postpone just let my assistant know.”

I don’t think I wasted more than three minutes after I received that response did I call my husband and have him call to cancel (I was in the car picking up Little Girl A from preschool). 

I feel much, much better…

    I’m glad you the doctor said that. One less thing to stress about now.
