Just returned from four days in SLO (my alma mater)--had great time at the beach and visiting my nephew Kirk and Cal Poly. Michelle's already thinking she needs to be a mustang! I agree!
Came home to a packet from the surgery center....we are all set for a 12:00 surgery on the 4th. Could be at 10:00...the 10:00 patient is ill...time will tell.
Pre-ops here in Chico, one at the hospital, and one in San Ramon...then the surgery, then back to San Ramon 5 days after surgery for the post-op. I remember doing all this ten years ago..it's all coming back...including the release we have to sign that says there is that outside possibility nerve stimulation won't work. Have to just think positive.
Michelle is, like she said, I think, both nervous and excited. So am I.
I keep forgetting about the reality of the month delay between surgery and "activation."
She won't get to try out the new implant for four weeks--the incision has to be completely healed. That wait will be longer than this wait for surgery...but not quite so nerve-wracking..
April and May will be months of extra miles on the van, I think!

Hi Michelle and Cyndi,
Thanks for inviting me to read your blog. It was fun to read the history too. I'm very excited for you second CI.
If you need a place to hang out when you can't participate in PE, you are welcome to come over to room 204. I have a prep period so the room is usually empty.
See you soon,
Debra-Lou Hoffmann
