Deaf Boy Hears Dad For The First Time: Touching VIDEO

This is so touching, watching a deaf boy hearing hid dad for the very first time. Three-year-old Grayson Clamp was born without a cochlear nerve, which connects the auditory portion of the inner ear to the brain. A cochlear implant did nothing to make him hear.

A new device known as an “auditory brain stem implant” was administered to him and he became the first U.S. child to receive it.

For the first time, Grayson was able to hear her father say “Daddy loves you.”

University of North Carolina doctors implanted the microchip inside the boy’s brain, and it helps him process and recognize sounds that travel through tubes to his ear.
