Thanks! She was eyeing my soda tonight!

Victoria's surgery I am so glad the surgery is over. Waiting for this day was hard. The surgery got off to a late start. It was supposed to be around 8:30am Wednesday and it didn't start until 12:15. Victoria did good in the morning, what a trooper she was. She didn't start getting cranky...

Thank you!! I am getting nervous, but also excited. I am getting everything ready tonight, and then tomorrow night we are headed into New York City to stay overnight near the hospital. I don't feel like driving Wednesday morning nervous with a baby who does not like the car. I figure it will be...

You are so right. Kayla123 is referring to a few members that have said that in the past. Thank you and good luck to you and your family!

Ivans Dad - My daughter is getting implanted next week. It wasn't an easy decision, but we choose to implant her. I agree with Kayla123. I am going to quote something she said because it is so true. Good luck with your decision. "The one thing that gets to me is how people think we...

Good luck tomorrow. Try and get some sleep tonight!

I bet you are so happy it's over. You did great! I am sorry you still feel dizzy. Thanks for the details. It helps to know what you guys are going through with the surgery. Feel better.

You (an interpreter) would be much more valuable than a dog could ever be. That is my opinion. I haven't heard any local updates on this yet. If I do, I will let you all know.

Unfortunetly not everyone saw the statement Eve and I are speaking about. It was removed pretty fast because it did not belong in the thread it was in. It was such an uncalled for statement, in the middle of a pretty funny thread.

You did not say that!! I am sorry if it looked like I stated you said it, another member said it. It wasn't even to me, but I saw it. Thanks. I know she will succeed in whatever she does, with or without the implant! I will make sure of that.

See now you have your opinion, but it doesn't sound bad because you are saying it in a respectful way. I totally understand how people can disagree with implants on children, but it all comes down to how you say something. Flat out telling someone you get nauseous at the sight of their child...

I think this post was for me. I do not keep her from deaf people, actually I take her to a deaf school once a week. We interact with the people there, we attend the functions that are there, and we are learning sign so we can better communicate with people I run into. The high school students...

Thanks. Good idea you had. If they have their own section, they can complain all they want to each other.

I understand everyone has their opinion. But when it's not asked for, don't give it! People think hearing parents make the decision to implant their child because they are lazy to learn sign, or that they are embarrassed. It has nothing to do with that. Decisions have been made and to hear that...

Luciadistubred - I tried to PM you too!! I figured I would fill you in.

R2D2 - Victoria's activation will be March 6th. Thanks for doing this!!

You are right, there are others too. Thanks to all of you for being so open minded, especially towards the hearing parents.

Good luck tomorrow!!!!

You have a valid point. I am glad I am not involved in this decision!!!

This is all I found. It does state he has implants and another article I saw confirmed that he has an interpreter also. I feel bad for the student. I am not deaf, and my daughter does not have an implant yet... but I would think that with an implant he could at least hear the fire alarm. It will...
