sorry to hear that man, hope it somehow does get reversed, well, you can pull through this, ive pulled through near death 6 times so far, and im still out flying along, making huuge explosions, makign fires, shooting rifles, doing archery,dragging my banshee and riding my blaster,, so i think you'll be ok for hearing, if you can, keep us updated on if you think its getting better or worse, i like to hear from people who are potentially not well, so that i know everything is alright in a sense of the word "alright..."
