I just want to thank everyone for your calls and messages. Ever since I've finally started to talk about our concerns with Sadie, I've gotten so much help and so many suggestions. A friend in my ward put me in contact with a lady in Orange County that went through the same thing with her son and she gave me so much info. I guess there is a California Department of Development and they apparently have regional centers everywhere. Anyway I called the regional center for my county and they are going to send someone to my home to assess my child. If they feel she is behind in development they will help me out with additional services. This process will take a couple weeks but it is all at no cost. So I feel like I'm doing something (while I'm waiting for the hearing test which is so far away). I don't understand why doctors don't offer up this information to you! I mean really, I feel so empowered by this little bit of info that was not easy to come by. So I am going to keep everyone updated incase you come across someone having similar issues. Thank you everyone again for your lovely words and help.

Yeah!! It is such a relief to hear you are finding answers.
