Six days to go until Halloween, turn-on day. Um, let’s just say we’re a little excited!!!
As you can see in the picture, Molly’s scar is healing beautifully. Now that most of the swelling is gone, you can see and feel the very defined implant beneath the skin.


Would love to share yet another LINK /video clip with you. ABC’s "Good Morning America" covered a remarkable and touching story about the McBride family, which some of you may have seen in May 06. All four family members are deaf and can hear with the aid of a cochlear implant. Recently, three of them were bilaterally implanted. Just thought this would be helpful in seeing not only what the external device looks like, but also how each family member is progressing in speech/ language. Amazing!

You don't know me, but I am praying for Molly's big day tomorrow! My name is Rachel and I am unable to follow that link that has the video of the other family.

YEAH! I'm so excited for you! My oldest son had his surgery before Halloween, but it wasn't activated until AFTER. He went as a "cyborg" that year. IT'S BEEN FIVE YEARS NOW!

Your blog has brought back some exciting memories for me. ;)

Can't wait to "hear" how everything goes, too!
