I suspect that the initial response has changed as your brain has become used to the new sounds and since this story has been picked up following a report on Gizmodo your perspective would be interesting - <br /><br />http://gizmodo.com/5845617/a-29+year+old-woman-hears-herself-for-the-first-time-thanks-to-hearing-implantsTolstoyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05305314520560360037noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2631537308239775309.post-16492401571969858692010-01-19T14:37:41.595-08:002010-01-19T14:37:41.595-08:00Hello Nikki!
My daughter was 3 years old when she...Hello Nikki!<br /><br />My daughter was 3 years old when she was implanted. She wore bilateral hearing aids from 6 months til then.<br /><br />I wanted to THANK YOU, as you were a young woman when you were "switched on" and thus able to describe your thoughts and feelings. Your experience has given me insights as to what my daughter must have felt at the time, and I am very grateful for that. I found your blog, and have been poking around, learning more about you. I think you are an extremely smart, beautiful woman who is able to convey ideas and feelings in a very friendly manner. I am very happy you are doing well and wish you nothing but the best.<br /><br />Thanks again for sharing and allowing me to feel what you felt.<br /><br />BTW - Adriana is 8 years old now and in third grade of a mainstream school.... :) I have included my facebook info if you wish to correspond. I would like that.... :)Denis Figliahttp://www.facebook.com/profile.php?ref=profile&id=1133930686noreply@blogger.com
