The day before ......

Tomorrow I go in for surgery to have my cochlear implant in the left ear. Two hour surgery, an overnight stay, then home to wait for the wound to heal (and my hair to grow back!). After three months I've worked out how to be a deaf person so while I'm excited about the prospect of hearing again, I'm not looking forward to learning how to be a hearing (hard of hearing but still hearing) person again. I suppose it is just another journey I have to take!!! Stay tuned, surgery update to follow. x
