I love the remote!

I have to eat my words. After a week, I'm hooked on this remote. It beeps to tells me when coils fall off and batteries are low and I can watch the mic activity without seeing the processor. I also feel more interactive. We were given 4 programs to work through and got through 3 of them. It's nice to be able to set our own pace with Sophie's CIs.

So after a 9 month battle with hearing aids, keeping these things on Sophie's head is super hard as well.  We have a 4 component solution:

• Long coil cable (2 day shipping via fedex)
• Cochlear Litewear...just the clip
• Bebopshop (the cupcake clip on the pink tether from etsy) CI holder to ensure the processor stays on if gets pulled out of the litewear clip (happens a lot)
• Pilot's cap

Tomorrow is a huge day for us...Second mapping appointment, pre-op pediatrician visit, and Cochlear America is in town and doing a parent seminar on the Nucleus 5.  Second Surgery is Thursday so we have a very exciting week ahead!
