Natalie Alice.. my baby!

Photobucket
I took Natalie to the DR. last week for a rash she had behind her ear that wasnt getting better and looked infected. It was all red and had puss in it so it was time to take her in and have it looked at. It is the whole backside of her ear. Dr. said she has dermatitis and that it would always be there and have flair ups and so on. He prescribed her some antibiotic ointment and an oral antibiotic because it was pretty infected. I also brought to his attention that Natalie seems to have a little bit of a hearing issue. She was having problems with certain tones. She could hear me talking alright but I just have noticed over the last year that she was having issues with the TV and music and things like that. She also has a strong speech problems as well and she ALWAYS talks to us sooooo loudly. So I asked him about it and he did a hearing screening right then and sure enough she is what they call "Tone deaf" and he referred us to the specialist. I am a bit concerned but know that she will be fine with all of todays technology and that she isnt completely deaf she just has problems with lower tones. She completely failed the lower tones on the hearing test. :( I will keep you all informed and updated after we see the specialist.
