hearing aids and fm system

 

Not really a question, but maybe a "solution"... We have a 10-week old with profound hearing loss, and he's been fitted with aids. Keeping the darn things on is a nightmare! The bit of toupee tape keeps them on for a minute or two, and Huggies (along with putting in the molds) is frustrating as it can be. We found a "body adhesive" called "It Stays". We got it from http://www.supportshop.com/itstays.htm It's a water-soluble material that sticks to the aid and the baby's head, doesn't irritate his skin, and the darn things will stay in place for 4 hours... It's easy to put on, and easy to take off. FWIW, John



Dear Mr. Elwood,
You're a step ahead of the audiologists here at JTC. None of us have heard about this body adhesive and we immediately looked at the website and ordered some. The best news is that this product does not irritate your little one's skin: that sold us immediately. Thank you for the tip! I know that many families here will benefit from it.
Sincerely,
Kathleen Sutherland
