Surgery is a go!

I woke up yesterday morning as I usually do. Went on my fb, email and bonding with Rocky. I opened up an email from my audiologist who I've been working with since I started the process in 2009. It said Dr. Nosan has set your surgery for April 9 at 1145 am! He was so excited for me. :) I immediately forward the email to my mom and posted on Facebook. God works in ways we can't even fathom! This is an answer to prayers and a wonderful birthday present! It was wonderful to see the group of friends I have that celebrated this news with me! Thank you for all your support! It means more than you know! :)

Having the surgery date makes it that more real. I'm so excited, nervous, scared, and curious to see my dream actually happening. I wonder what it will be like to hear out of that ear again and have bilateral hearing in the first time in at least 20 years! I've heard stories of disappointment and regret of doing surgery. Dizziness side effects, headaches, etc. So I am scared that maybe it's going to be a disappointment for me too. But I know if I don't try, it will be something I would regret for the rest of my life! I regret being a stubborn mule as a kid because I didn't want them touching my hair. However, I'm very thankful that my mom and dad respected how I felt at the time. This is a very big step in my life. I am so ready for the new experience. Surgery is a little over a month away! Thanks again for all the support and prayers! :)

Next step is shots and an appt with Dr. Rodel to play with the equipment! :) :) so excited for that appt but not the shots!
