Good Morning Good Morning...
~~Well been checking out the advanced bionics website... www.hearingjourney.com and looks like there is no news to report! this really is a minute by minute thing. We have to wait for Advanced Bionics to work with the food and drug administration. The one awesome thing about AB is that they are not willing to put their product back on the market until they know for sure this is fixed. The other thing is, AB was not forced to recall, they did it as a volunteer thing. That shows me that the integrity of this company means something. There are two other options for a cochlear implant...but honestly the research shows that Advanced Bionics has the lead. One of the other choices has maxed out...where AB is only at uhm I want to say 38% so there is a TON of room for upgrades or improvement.
~~Waiting is stinky, as everyone knows I am NOT a patient person. Imagine me times 12. That is how Aubz is, she is so looking forward to this new day. It is better then Christmas mom, this is the best thing that will ever happen to me:) I agree...hearing things she has never heard....and other things that she once heard but now cant. This will be AMAZING.
~~Since we were in Denver and Children's hospital gave us that loner aid, things have gone down hill. Aubrey feels that what that "awesome"aid once did...no longer it is powerful. We go back to the audiologist on Jan 3rd for a repeat hearing test on that left ear! Maybe we need to dual implant....ughhh that was to fast. I was hoping that aid would last us at least a year. ANYHOW...lets wait to see....chin up and good happy vibes to AubZ.
