Doctors can't explain why it happened, but ENT specialists told Cadyn’s parents there was a way to restore his hearing. Months later, Cadyn became the second child to ever receive a Cochlear Implant surgery in the Brazos Valley.
Doctors activated the implant for the first time Friday. “It was exciting to know he could hear our voices for the very first time,” said Krista Beard, Cadyn’s mother.
The Beards recorded the moment when doctors turned on the cochlear implant. In the video, you can see the moment Cadyn hears a crayon drop for the first time.
