VIDEO: Baby with hearing difficulties hears his mother's voice for the first time

“I was trying really hard not to cry. I didn’t want him to see me cry. I was trying hard to keep it together and just talk to him.”

Elijah Cook was born in Minnesota on the 2nd of January of this year with no hearing in one ear and limited hearing in the other.

On March 5th, he was fitted with a hearing aid and the baby boy heard his mother's voice for the first time.
