My 14 yr old's Baha consult Monday.
« on: May 09, 2009, 03:09:03 pm »
My son is excited for Baha consult Monday he has been watching me in my healing process and can not wait to try the Demo Monday.  :) We went to the movies today and he sat on my deaf side and he tried to talk to me man I can not wait to get the sound proceesor I could not understand him. It is going to feel real good hearing somebody on my right side again. Let you know when his surgery is scheduled.

That's great, Mike! I assume he will have the same doc that you did?  That's wonderful that he will know what to expect after your experience. I know you suffered for a long time with SSD, it must be a relief for you that your son can have this procedure at such a young age.

How are you feeling? I think I am healing super well, everyday the stiches see less noticable. No itch, soreness only when I touch it now, but even that is mild.
