ok heres what happened, i came in and surgeon and his assisstant brian came in with case of cochlear implant nucleus freedom to show me and let me try it on its HUGE but not that crazy heavy though it just so overwhelming my ear so i told him i want mini bte so he brought out order form and told me i get 2 speech processor so I told him i want my regular bte in pink and the other one is mini bte which i plan on wearing most of time it will be top part pink and bottom part i get 12 different colors! im excited! OH almost forgot, my coil will be brown so it blend in my hair better.
he told me he doubt that hearing aidwill benefit me enough at this level of deafness he told me he will be surprised if it actually does so he went ahead ordering it and sent it to company and told me his assisstant tina isnt in today so have to call her later i think monday she should be in by then to schedule the surgery and i STILL have to do hearing test anyways just to prove my insurance that its medically necessary blah blah blah so whenever I call i will KNOW my surgery date!!!! Im so excited and of course i NEED to not get too excited because what if they cant schedule it before my school start? and also what if Jody the audiologist will actually be reasonable like if i scored under 40% in speech reception test then i get it not on level of loudness i heard you know?
But the most important of them all is i have very very very good chance of being perfect canditate!
i will update blog as soon as i know the date and another post on how my hearing test went and if i get it or not!!!!!

That is great news!! You are moving right along!! Did they happen to give you a time frame of when that stinking hearing aid mold is coming in so you can get the hearing test out of the way?
