Welcome.. Cool... sign language is a great way to communicate. But fingerspelling.. The great thing about sign is that you you hardly need it... When we used signs with our daughter we used the sign for "J" for her brother, and "stroke on the cheak" for her sister"... (Have a look here at a...

Going... 2 days off for deliberate spam. naisho

Lotte has rechargeable's (2) and they work the whole day. In her schoolbag she has 2 x the batteryholders for the dispensable batteries, and a fresh pack of 6 batteries.... Haven't used them yet.. btw.. this is what we have to protect the "emergency" battery holder: (Except.. ours will hold 3...

Here they are... That's weird... as if Grendel started a new thread.... ... what's the point of this.??

Missing some posts here... What happened...??? - Found them..

Some research.... Of course we - parents of deaf/hoh children with HA's/CI's share our experiences we have with our own children. Sometimes we have some more info from other parents, but it takes research to investigate how children generally do with CI.. Below is one of those researches...

Reminds me of being in Italy and talking slow Italian (from the guide book to order a room) to the woman at hotel reception.. Apparently, my Italian was so good that the reply came at 100 words/minute... I didn't get any of it...

A short list.... :lol: Scubadiving is OK.. Unless you want to go really deep... and how many people you know do that? There are magnetic fields everywhere... My daughter has yet to react to a magnetic field that's strong enough to be registered by her.. Re-implantation.. Yep.. that's gonna...

Sounds you have have taken control.. Excellent.. And very good to have a sitter that your son can identify with. ASL should not be a problem now.. Hope they bond...

Lissy is 10 years old with her mother watching over her like a hawk.... LOL.. But it would be good to see how much gymnastics can be done with CI on your head... "handy" sounds as if you can just get one... If HAs work for oyu there's no reason to get CI...

You missed the part "or changing batteries every 2-3 days .." So.. Camping is back on.. :cool2: you want to meet Lissy... Upcoming gymnastic champion..?

Basically, you could do everything you do now. As for maintenance.. Apart from charging batteries each evening, or changing batteries every 2-3 day, there's no maintenance. In fact, without the ear olds and tubes that need to be clean, there's probably less maintenance, but someone who went...

Welcome to AllDeaf.. Sounds like your son has made the choice for you, and it would be wonderful if he would be able to join Michigan School for the Deaf.. Hope you can make it happen..

....paid/spokesperson Always interesting how I never see these people in this messageboard... It's a nice technique to discredit other members... Just accuse them of alternative motives and they don't need to be believed any more.. I know there are people that are associated with companies...

Guess it depends on the age of the patient and distance to medical care. With Lotte - age 2-1/4 - Lotte had to stay 3 days before we could go home because we lived in another town. People living in Oslo were allowed to go home the next day

Really...?? Removing part of a body and with that part of the sense is the same as restoring a sense..?

Puking + asking for a pain killer = Major Surgery.. ah... Well, I didn't realize that was your definition for major surgery.. With that definition... CI-operation IS major surgery.. For the rest of the world..... Puking + asking for a pain killer = Major Surgery.. is not considered major...

Lotte was up after 3 hours. Threw up. Got an asperine, ate, drank and got out of bed to start playing with the tricycle... Parents running after her through the hospital corridors.... Imagine.... Experiences are different.....
