Video: Brain-stem implant and cued speech for a deaf boy

Grayson Clamp, who was born with Charge Syndrome, recently became the first child to receive an auditory brain stem implant as part of a Food and Drug Administration trial.

Go here to the original site to see it in CC.

Before you track this parent down, which I suggest you do not, just so you can give him unsolicited advices or worse berate him. Here's a reminder why you should not.

a-mazing! the look on the little boy's face was priceless. I'm thrilled that brainstem implants are available for those children who don't have cochleas or an auditory nerve. thanks for sharing this video.

Just to let you know that I am cleaning up my act, so any postings about you, holism, candy, or anyone else done in a negative matter is now being remove from Deaf Anthology. I still go about 775 postings to go through, reediting them, deleting them, and it will take a while for me to restore my reputation and create a new image on Deaf Anthology. It's hasn't been published on Deafread for quite awhile, I assume the link been broken. Now I can live in peace, hopelly be forgiven
