Jerome has kept the waxy cotton bud as a souvenir!
Jerome Bartens, 11, a schoolboy from Pembrokeshire of UK, suddenly lost hearing in his right ear when he was only a toddler of two years old. The hearing specialists couldn't diagnose what's the reason behind his hearing problem. But now Barten's deafness for 9 years was cured after a thick piece of cotton wool bud popped out of his ear when playing pool game with friends in a church hall.
Jerome's dad Carsten, 45, said: "It was just incredible - his hearing returned to normal in an instant. He was cured as suddenly as he became deaf. I had always suspected Jerome had stuck something in his ear when he was little and that was causing the problem. But the doctors and hearing specialists said it was wax and he would probably grow out of it.
"I am amazed they didn't spot something as obvious as a cotton wool bud."
The boy couldn't help express his happiness after regaining the hearing:
"I can hear much better now and I think I'll be much happier at school now my ear does not ache all the time.
"I was just playing pool in the church hall when my ear made a popping noise. It was very strange at first to be able to hear everything.
"But now I'm getting used to it - it's great that people don't have to shout to me or that I don't have to turn my head all the time."
