Together, we have passed a big milestone in the Tiny Ears campaign; 500 signatures in 5 days - THANK YOU. We have been blown away by the support, and even more so by the comments you are leaving as to why this cause is important to you. Comments like: "My son was just diagnosed with severe hearing loss. He is almost two and was just diagnosed since Regina doesn't do infant hearing tests. We are lucky we caught it when we did but it could have been missed. Please make infant hearing test mandatory." "I'm signing because I was one of those children who didn't have Early Newborn Hearing Screening and was not identified until age 3. I adapted and persevered but many other children do not because their parents remain in denial. This will help effect change for many families for the better across Canada." "I'm a parent of an infant who benefitted from early hearing screening in BC. Our family has been fortunate in benefiting from early diagnosis and intervention. We've been able to increase our daughter's access to sound with hearing aids, and adopt strategies to improve her and our abilities to communicate, thereby bolstering her social, emotional and cognitive development. In another province we might not have had this, and might just now be realizing that there was an issue. It's much easier and more cost-effective to increase early intervention than to play catch up, and these services should be equitable across the country." WHAT CAN YOU DO TO HELP? Share, share share!
