This photo was taken by photographer Jack Bradley and depicts the exact moment this boy, Harold Whittles, hears for the very first time ever. The doctor treating him has just placed an earpiece in his left ear. Date unknown.
Wow. That was such a great timing. That is really cute. I wonder if tahtw as followed by tears or a terrified expression because of it being too much for him or if because he was so young he received all these with marvel and the excitement that leaves most of us once we grow up.
This is indeed a touching moment, I love the fact that the boy can hear now.
Not to taken anything away from the heartfelt and touching story, it would even be greater if he could hear without the ear piece, now that would have been magnificent.
