Wednesday, February 8th, 2017 it was time to get my CI’s re-adjusted again. I therefore drove to the hearing clinic at Odense University Hospital in Odense. This day there were only re-adjustment programmed, but also I had a practical question and would like to talk to a doctor. More on that further down. After a […]

Third month (January 2017) Telephone calls are the big news this month when I talked on the phone for the first time in years. My mother sent a text message to me on January 12th. Because by this time I sat with the audio cable installed in the CIs and listened to an audio book […]

I have made some changes to the blog: New layout, by switching to the theme of “Amadeus.” Simpler but more readable layout. Language selection can now always be found at the bottom of the page, instead of only being stored on a subpage. WordPress’ built-in comment function has now been removed due to a lot of […]

With only a day for the audio connection, I wait obviously excited to get the sound on the new CI’s on Thursday, November 3rd. It will be interesting – not least to get hearing to my hitherto deaf right ear. It will probably be a very special experience! But otherwise the most exciting about the […]
