Countdown to Cochlear Implant

Hi Cheryl - take for checking in! Well a week on and I am still very “wonky”. Thankfully the throwing up ceased after the first evening. However I have forced myself to be up and about the house more, I even made a “seafood” dinner last night - clam chowder from a tin and toasted tuna melts, ha, ha!

We are going to our little summer cottage today as it is the beginning of our annual Civic Holiday weekend. I can lay around up there just as easily as at home. Pain is minimal, mostly an earache in the evening which I think is due to (gently) chewing dinner. So, I think I’m going to live.

I was a bit disconcerted when I double checked with the surgeon’s secretary about the confusing instructions around hair washing . She really discouraged it until my follow up to get the staples out - which is still 9 days away! Good thing I can hide away till then!
