charlie had his hearing test today, turns out he does have glue ear, but its not very bad and not really bad enough to affect his hearing too much, they couldnt do the test properly because he was too old for one test and too young for the other, but they said his hearing is ok, one ear is better than the other though. he will be reviewed in 6 months, where they will do a better test to check again. but overall his hearing is not a problem thankfully.
