Interesting Point about dealing with the Cochlear Implant

Hey!
I was talking to this lady about my Cochlear Implant and she made an interesting point and I thought I'd share with you. She said that the proccess of learning to hear with the implant is like getting glasses. When you don't have your glasses on everything is fussy and when you have them on, you have to learn what the fuzzy thing really was. So with the implant...you may not hear any noise when doing the dishes but when you get the implant you'll hear noises and you have to get used to the fact that the sound is from the water.
And I think that is so true becuase when you get the implant, so don't all the sudden know what each sound is and where it is coming from. It takes time to "train" your brain what all the noises are coming from. So for the new implant users, don't get discouraged, becuase afterall in the the long run we will be able to hear a lot! Hey, maybe even more than the normal hearing people. haha. Wouldn't that be funny?? Well got to go.
Talk to you later!
