It just occurred to me that I will have my surgery in exactly two weeks! I have been so busy with work, grad school and life that it hasn't hit me that it is coming up so quickly.
Once in a while when I am driving in my car, I turn off the left hearing aid of my better ear to see if I can understand the radio. It is amazing how very little I can hear on that side. It is all garble and very dull. I guess I am just checking to see if the hearing magically came back, ha.
Next Wednesday, I leave for Rochester, New York, it's funny to be hitting both Rochesters within a week of each other, ha. I will be joining friends to drive across the border to Ottawa, Canada for my friend Andie's wedding. I am curious to see my friend Scot who was just implanted on May 31st. I plan to get all the information I can from him about the surgery, recovery and hook-up!
I want to say thank you all for your support. I appreciate all the e-mails and messages of well wishes. Also, a special thank you to my teaching team along with my audiologist, Claudia and supervisor Paula for the surprise package full of goodies! What a great team to work with!
I attached photos of them (you know how much I LOVE pictures!).
