They say God never gives you more then you can handle. I think God is over estimating our abilities just a bit. We are already drowning with Gavin. Now it appears that Emmett John is profoundly deaf.

This means that he only hears certain frequencies. He is scheduled for the audiologist on Wednesday. He is also going to the children's hospital for a hearing test where they sedate him and administer sounds and then measure brain waves to see if he even processes sound.
He is also going to go through the autism clinic because he still cannot talk and the family history (though no one thinks he is autistic).
We have been teaching Emmett and ourselves sign language because he has no other way to communicate with us. For now its a waiting game until he is tested and we get the results.
