Subject: My 2nd mapping results

I want to share my second mapping with eveyrone. Before going in on Monday
I had decided that I liked CIS the best. Don't like the SAS or MPS at all.
So, my audie got rid of those two. We worked on CIS until I was happy with
what I was hearing. That is program one. Program two is CIS for phone and
music. Program three is same as program one only at a higher volume for
when program one is no longer loud enough.

Then, after that was done she put me in the booth to test me for sentences.
Last week when she did this I got 47% on sentences with no background noise.
This time, I was listening to each sentence and repeating them back
correctly. By the fifth sentence I realized I understood the whole thing
and I was quietly weeping. By the time I finished the last sentence, the
tears were just pouring down my face. My audie opened the door and she and
I just gave each other the biggest hug. She started crying too. Then my
surgeon came in and we hugged each other and I told him he gave me back my
freedom. He was grinning from ear to ear. Anyway, I got 100% on my test.
I had every word right! Then she tested me with background noise. The
voice level was at 50dB and the background noise was at 40dB. I scored 57%
on that test. She told me I am the first patient she has ever had that did
as good as I did so soon after being hooked-up. She was very pleased with
me.

Then yesterday I went to see the speach therapist. She tested me on
different words, sentences etc. while hiding her lips. I again got 100%.
She also turned her back on me and said sentences. Again, I got them all
correct. She told me there is nothing she can help me with since I already
can do everything she would have worked with me on. So I don't have to come
back and see her unless I feel there is something I need to work with her
on.

Also, I can talk on my phone at home, my phone at work and my cell phone. I
pretty much understand everything I hear. I am so amazed! Just writing all
of this has brought tears to my eyes again!

And finally, Monday night I was writing in my journal while the news was on
the tv. All of a sudden I realized I understood everything the reporter was
saying, AND I WASN'T EVEN LOOKING AT THE TV! So I am so happy. This
implant is everything I had hoped for but didn't expect to happen.

Hugs,

Sue
