OH has been accepted for a Cochlea Ear Implant. Wonderful news. It will take a while though. Should take place in march or April. It will not be switched on for a month to give it time to heal. Then it can take about three months for him to get used to it. At first people's voices will sound like Mickey Mouse or Donald Duck. It takes time to relearn how to hear using different parts of the brain.
They told us of lots of things that could go wrong but stressed they are very rare.
We are both so excited about it. Daughter has just brought a bottle of bubbly round to celebrate!
