Answer Hi Bella,
It is nice of you try to help your nephew, you can do that. You need to consult with his parent for permission to bring him in USA so he can get his new hearing exam. I wonder if he knows American sign language to communicate if he is deaf?
If they say no, there is nothing that you can do about it because Mexico is not connected with USA.
