    WOW. What a high-tech gadget the Nucleus 6 is! And the auto-filter thing is awesome!

    Had you thought about getting the other one upgraded?

    Glad everyone was so nice to you. I am sure they feel really happy to do something that makes such a huge difference for someone!

    You've got a good big doggy nurse there. You're in good hands!

    My audiologist actually suggested I update my left ear's CI - but it's entirely up to me. I would have to go under again so they can take out the old and put in the new. MAYBE in a year or two... It's possible.

    I'm just so thankful to have had a great surgeon and his staff. SO considerate and kind. That's who I'd rather go with than someone who is cold and "all business."

    I am just so happy that I am doing well!

    Wonderful news! I'm glad it all went so well.

    I'm enjoying your blog - and so glad that things are going so smoothly for you. Can't get over how big Ryder is - and how handsome

    Thanks everyone! I will be making a new post today. Made a new one yesterday. Today is going to be a long one, I think.
    My newest challenge: Try not to end up on my wrong side when sleeping. I need to stay on my left side, not turn up on my right side. Otherwise I wake up in a little bit of pain on my ear. :\

    Use a body pillow? Or bunch of pillows? Or a large, immovable doggie?

    I may have to use a neck pillow! Hmm I can try a body pillow. I do have a lot of pillows to use so I'll put it between Mike and I. And on my other side, too. I'll try that tonight.
