just got out of surgery.
« on: May 16, 2008, 01:03:54 PM »
Hello ya'll I just got out of surgery.. since most of ya'll know that I'm complete deaf. I've been waiting for the funds to come up to be able to pay for the cochlear Implant... well it's all done. I'm just bit sore, all chopped up from the meds that I'm taking... ??? so just letting ya'll know that I'm doing well and cannot wait to hear my bike roar for the very first time in my life...  but that'll be 6 weeks before they'll activate the implant.... oh boy... i'm so excited!.... O0 


I tried to upload the pics on BBR... but apperantly can't find "upload" part on that site?... maybe I'm all too chopped up???    :-\

Ain't modern technology great?  Can they put in a switch, so if you don't like what you hear you can turn it back off?

Seriously, that's great news torque...  Awesome!

Great deal Torque. Now you will be able to enjoy the quiet peacefulness of my bike. It won't even bother you to ride behind me! ;D

Torque, I don't know you, but I think this is FANTASTIC.  Glad you are doing well.  The pipes on a VTX 1800 sound great except for Stock.

Congrats! I used to work with somone who had a similar operation, he wasn't coompletely deaf though just really close. It took a few weeks before he had the full effect then everyday he would come in and tell you some new thing he heard or learned. Like he had been calling a couple that was his neighbors the wrong names for over a year or just how cool a tv show was now.  I am happy for you.
