Guest guest Posted July 21, 2008 Report Share Posted July 21, 2008 Hi , s here, Good luck with your little girl and all her surgery. Tell her don't let the ops get her down there is light at the end of the tunnel. I'm surprised her hearing haven't been affected too much. May I suggest this is something you keep a close eye on. As I prevously mentioned as a child I use to get really sad to see my play-mates swimming and having fun in the water and I had to miss out. It was very strictly NO SWIMMING for me. Following all the surgery they created a bowl type of opening so water can come out of the ear. I am still not very good at swimming, and still don't like to get my head under the water. Not sure if its old habits, plus I feel dizzy when I do go under water. I use a support worker to come with me because without the CI i am totally deaf and nearly totally blind. Good luck and if your daughter wants to write and ask me questions with your permission please feel welcome to encourage your daughter.
