Update
It's been a month and a half since I got the implant processors and I owe you all an update. The background noise that was so loud at first is now fading so that I'm now hearing other sounds including voices. Noises still don't sound like they used to, but I think I'm getting used to that. I went back to the hospital last week for another meeting with the implant technician. Every time I've gone in, the technician has modified and increased the sound levels. When she did it this time and turned it on, it felt a lot like when I still had my hearing aid. She then gave me a test where she covered her mouth, said several words and had me repeat them back. I got two out of six, which I think is pretty good. So things are definitely going well and are actually better than I had expected. I think I'm already starting to get more out of conversations as I'm not asking people to repeat themselves as much. So onwards! :)
I also had two strange dreams the last couple of nights. In the first one, I was babysitting for mashiara13 and dalthor . I have no idea where those two were so I was handling two little tots by myself. Presumably, I got paid for this. :P As for my second dream, I got a new job as a plumber for a factory. Like, WTF???
