I just found out that I got approved for the cochlear implant by insurance. Now all needs to be done is paperwork and schedule the surgery.

It's now official date is set in stone. May 19th. I will be activated May 21th.
Congratulations!!!! I hope you have great success with your new CI. I am curious, do you use ASL now as a first language?

No my first language is spoken english. I grew up with hearing aids.
I actually did not learn Sign Language till I was in Kindergarden. I actually taught myself how to by comparing the sign that the interpreter signed to the english word the teacher said.
I still speak orally. I rarely sign, nobody around here is deaf so it's sort of pointless.
Wow! Did you have any connection to the Deaf community when you were little? I will be thinking of you when you go to surgery and sending my best wishes and prayers.
Congratulations LadyCaissa!![]()
Congrats! I am sure you are super excited!
