My fault for not putting it on the calendar.  My translab and BAHA abutment are scheduled at HEI on May 11th.

Hi Clarice,
Lots of luck.  I know it will go smoothly.  Did you decide which processor you are getting?

Dale .....

I'm getting the Oticon Ponto Pro. Seemed like the best choice after researching both. Also Dr. Friedman's preference.

Thanks for the update, Jay  ;D

Just wanted to mention that Carolyn (heyct) had a BAHA implant on 5/9/11.

It probably didn't get on the AN Calendar and therefore didn't make your list.

I don't actually "make" trouble..just kind of attract it, fine tune it, and apply it in new and exciting ways
