BAHA surgery
« on: January 27, 2010, 08:50:53 pm »
BAHA surgery is Friday.  Thanks to everyone for your encouragement.  A year ago, I never thought I would want to do this.  Now I can't wait to hear again.  I'll tell you my story soon.

Best of luck, Sue.

Hope you have a swift, painless procedure and very rapid healing.

You'll be wearing your device in no time and I'm confident you'll like it as much as I like mine  ;D

Can't wait to hear your story!
