Hi everyone,
I realize it's been a long time since I've posted. While I'm still excited that the surgery was successful, it's unfortunate for me to announce that I still don't use my cochlear implant that often. It's hard when I find myself among the deaf community. I don't need to use it all the time. Especially since the valley is very hot right now, I can't bear the sweat behind my ear because of the thing having to hang from it.
However, I love my cochlear implant still. I love to be able to hear my boyfriend talk to me. I love to listen to music. I love being able to talk with my parents on the phone. I even was able to talk with my grandpa one time. It amazes me how I realize how much I missed out on hearing stuff. Since I moved in with my boyfriend, and I put on the cochlear implant, I was amazed that I was able to hear the clock ticking. It sounded so loud. And I realized that some fans are loud too. Gee, I wonder how hearing people got used to that noise because it sure bothers me!
