Their baby boy was born with severe hearing loss, virtually deaf.
Little Corbin Grey is now one of the youngest patients in Cleveland Clinic Children's history to undergo a procedure for a bilateral cochlear implant.The family credits the research, technology and doctors at Cleveland Clinic Children's for his success.And naturally sharing them with anyone he meets.He keeps busy by jumping in the bounce house with his big brother Bennett.
But Makaela and Tony Lapso say they worried Corbin would never be able to speak or hear anything around him. "I just could kind of tell like something was going on, and in my heart, just mom gut just kicked in," Makaela Lapso said.He failed his newborn hearing screening before leaving the hospital."To be honest, that stole a lot of joy those first few weeks waiting for all the test results, waiting to figure out what was going on," Lapso said.Doctors discovered both she and her husband carry a recessive gene they passed on to Corbin.
The FDA suggests waiting until nine months of age, but Anne and the team say the success rate is just as high."We found there's no increased risk when they're younger, as long as it's done in the right hands and in the right expertise," Anne said.The Lapsos are expecting a third baby boy soon and cherishing each and every moment.
