Barbara,

.... and I want those glow-in-the-dark molds. When I get old and need aids,

I'm going to have some fun. No ITEs for me .... they're going to be colorful

and glow in the dark. LOL My grandchildren are going to think I'm an eccentric

old loon!

I have to say, the boys' glow in the dark earmolds were my favorites.

Hysterically funny! We'd go to the movies and they'd be glowing blue.

The best was when Tom had to have his tonsils and adenoids checked.

He's sitting in a dark room, the ENT has a light down his nose and

throat and his ears are glowing blue - he looked like an alien! LOL.

My 3.5yo daughter picked out the hot pink and white swirly earmolds so

she has a 'peppermint' in her ears and everyone loves it. And she

tries hard to always wear a matching outfit!! Anything to get her to

wear them everyday!

neuropathy, wearing aids but trying to get a cochlear implant.

These are next on our list of colors to try! We

currently have orange, Emmett's favorite color, just

in time for Halloween. He tells everyone he's

decorated for the fall!

Liam's mold is Yellow.. And they glow when in light ( you know like what

they have in some attractions etc..). His aides are normal flesh color.
