I wanted to clarify something for all you readers out there...
My CI processor is almost always set at the lowest volume possible and I have it switched to the "whisper" setting about 85% of the time. Hence the reason I hear all sorts of random sounds/noises all the time.
If my posts sound like I'm complaining, that is not my intention AT ALL. Just like a normal-hearing person, sometimes I notice different sounds on different days... and just like a normal-hearing person, sometimes the sounds "bother" me more.
Regardless, I am more than grateful that I have such a powerful CI and would not change a thing about it!
This blog was created with the intention of keeping my family and friends up-to-date about my sudden onset hearing loss, cochlear implant surgery and progress after activation. Since so much is going on, I figured it is easiest to just document my experiences in a place where everyone can read them on a regular basis. I truly hope that those who visit this site will get something out of it... ENJOY! :o)

Grrr.
I wish my laptop fan wasn't running so loudly. Having to listen to that incessant hum gets really annoying after a while.
Yes, I'm in a bad mood, which isn't being helped by the fact that my CI works so well!
<sigh>

Sarah
I was driving home tonight & had the radio tuned to 102.7FM only because NPR stops broadcasting news at 7pm.
Well, it's a good thing I did this because it allowed me to have a lovely CI moment: I recognized Sarah McLachlan's "In the Arms of an Angel" within *SECONDS* of it first playing!
I was proud of myself, if I may say so.
:o}
