    I didn’t think I would ever need to make a post of this nature, but I finally need some prayers sent to my family. On Friday my father woke up and couldn’t hear. Mom took him to the hospital and he received an mri and we will find out the verdict on monday. I am home right now with mom and dad and it’s really tough not being able to talk to dad. Anyway, I’ll take all the prayers I can get. Steve

    2 years ago, I woke up with “sudden hearing loss” in one ear. After I did some research, called some nurse hotlines and was told to come in on the next work day, I found info saying that all too often, the first responders tell you it’s not that big of a deal….”probably a minor cold or something.” After I insisted, they put me on steroids (which experts say is critical in the first day or two) and I recovered most, if not all of my hearing over the next week or so. They did do an MRI after putting me on steroids, but nothing turned up. Google “sudden hearing loss” for more info. Not sure if your father is suffering from what I got, but it’s more common than you think. When I told my patients about it, several of them knew people who it happened to, as well. The problem often is that the first physician you go to will tell you it will probably go away on it’s own. Wrong!!!! Go to a specialist right away and get on the steroids if it happens to you. Good luck to your father!

    Thank you all for your prayers. Mom is staying strong, but she is very concerned. To the ones that have experienced this, thank you for the hope. My father is currently on steroids, so I am hoping this will work for him as well. I will keep you all posted. Thank you again IDO, I now know where to go when I need somebody to lean on.

    Sorry to tag onto your post, but the responses were truly refreshing. Used to think of the IDO site as “fishing only” and disappointed in the social networking aspect. Now I see quite a different side. Anyone interested can add the family of Devan Dull (my grandson age 20) to their prayer list. Suicide this week, funeral tomorrow. Again, sorry to tag on, not meant to take away from your need.
