Update

Well things are going good with me and my Implant. I'm a Junior in High School and school is going great! I'm aceing all of my classes, which is really exciting! YAY! Last week was Homecoming, that was bunches of fun!! Friday night was our homecoming game, my brother and I stood up in the front cheering for the Lakeside Vikings. And believe it or not...we WON!!! YAY! YAY! YAY! That was really really really exciting to win our Homecoming Game!!! : ) Then saturday night, we had our Homecoming Dance. Jonathan (my brother) was my date so we danced and had alot of fun the whole night!!! It was pretty cool to be able to hear the beats and be able to follow along with the music.
Oh, the other day my brother and I spoke on a panel in front of a bunch of therapists, parents, and teachers at this Advanced Bionics Meeting. That was pretty interesting....apparently we were really good!! : ) They asked us questions about how we deal with the implant at school, the differences between the Hearing Aid and the Implant, Our favorite and least favorite things about the implant, etc. so I guess that went well. I was glad that we were there to help answer questions!
But other than that, everything seems to be going pretty good.
