Dog Days
It's the dog days of summer and it is really dragging on. Especially due to the fact that I can't wait for August to end. Well 10 more days until I get my "new sound" and it seems like this has dragged on forever. Feeling really good and just want to go to the next step. I did work up the courage to watch a cochlear implant surgery and it is quite interesting and graphic. If you want to watch, just click here. I have been in contact with the cochlear team in Vancouver and we have got all the details worked out for "turn on" week. My doctor keeps me pretty level headed, making sure I know what to expect and not have very high hopes for immediate success. I know I get the external hardware on the 27th but that will just be the beginning of another long journey that will have a happy ending. So the dog days of summer drag on......
