Daughter Lights Up When She Hears Mom's Voice Clearly For The First Time | Happily TV

A four-month-old beamed as her new hearing aids let her hear her mom’s voice clearly for the very first time. Youngster Tanaya, from Phoenix, Arizona, was diagnosed with hearing loss shortly after birth, having failed multiple tests at hospital and being referred for further testing. During that testing, Tanaya's parents were informed she had permanent inner ear hearing loss and would need hearing aids. Tanaya was no stranger to the devices, as her father, DeMarcus Green, is also hearing impaired and wears hearing aids in day-to-day life. On January 5, when Tanaya visited Phoenix Children’s Hospital's audiology office, in Gilbert, Arizona, she and her mom, Tameika Plumstead, 36, were told that it was the day she would be receiving her hearing aids – something Tameika had not been expecting because of insurance queries. As DeMarcus wasn't able to make the appointment, Tameika recorded as Tanaya's hearing aids were being fitted, capturing her daughter's smile as the devices allowed her to hear her mom's voice clearly for the first time.
