Although I don't have a CI, I agree with "CI-Borg" but what about "CI-Borg" and "CI-Borgette"? (I work with mostly men and they're the guys and I'm the guyette, LOL)

Ha ha! Yes, I've tangled with SM! Hear Again, you're right -- she made me VERY hot under the collar! I sure do NOT miss her and Cloggy, I'll take your advice and NOT go to DN! Just very happy she's not on here with her senseless arguments -- :run: Actually Cloggy, Sweetmind and...

Ashleysmommy, you oughta start a book of quotes! Especially for parents in need of encouragement, like those chicken soup for soul books!

I second that! You're in a good place on here -- there are a LOT of CIers (CIborgs/ CIborgettes?) here -- you'll be hearing from a lot of them soon!

Ah! Glad your dad apologized! It is very hard letting go of your child (I should know, I have four adults!)... Dr. P is a he then -- cool! April won't seem far off as you seem to have TWO goals! Controlling your blood sugar AND getting the CI -- hopefully this will keep you occupied...

Cloggy: OUr child learns language. This should be the focus. Great thread! Very proactive! Wonderful inputs from all... May I state my humble opinion? How about the WRITTEN language? (Cloggy, I'm guessing Lotte's reading in one language while she speaks in two?) I was born...

Good posting, Artoo! I love how you said "she left you a gift of hope and not giving up on the prospect of hearing again." Read with great interest on the exchange between Hear Again and Boult -- such technical expertise here! :cool: I'm also looking forward to reading your book, Hear...

:rockon: Just keep rockin' on! It'll get here before you know it!

Oh, :giggle: !!

deafskeptic, I echo Lucia's sentiment -- it's good that Dr. P is a diabetic too and that he (she?) is only postponing your surgery vs. cancelling it. Hopefully Dr. P respects your wishes in keeping everything between you two and not letting your father's wishes override them. Now on a...

Never thought about how eye/sunglasses could "interfere" with wearing CIs! Actually I've never worn behind-the-ears HAs, only body HAs (that's how old I am, LOL). (psst Lucia, are those your real eye colors? I've seen brown and blue combos but not like yours -- they're really pretty and...

(hi, Cloggy!) DN?

If you are talking about your own implant, then that is good for you... Lake Tahoe, glad you're doing great after surgery and now you're gonna be... :run: :Ohno: :Ohno: :hyper: waiting for your turn on!

Eyeth, :ty: Enjoyed watching that clip and Boult is right, all those myths've been debunked!

DeafSkeptic, so sorry to hear the news... Hope those folks from UNC realize that it is up to you only concerning making/breaking appointments. I also have a father that tried to control me but I've stood up to him and told him that I should live my life the way I want to. Maybe you could...

This could make a wonderful quote! Ashley will be all right with a loving mother like that! Also I love your quote about a smile adding to face value! Ashley is a cutie (I have two Ashleys, oldest granddaughter-hearing and a daughter-in-law-hoh, Fragmenter's wife)

Hear Again, good post! :h5:

Lillysdaddyandmommy... I'll be praying for you all tomorrow and for the medical team working on her!

Jer, you stated that quite accurately! Ashley and her mommy, :rockon:
