We are Randy and Carri. Audrena, our third child, has bilateral profound hearing loss. Currently we are traveling the path of her hearing journey as she has received her cochlear implants, and we are continuing to expand her speech and language. We started this blog to keep family and friends updated on what is happening during Audrena's hearing journey, and we have hopes that someday it will help another family facing cochlear implant surgery.

Bluetooth?
When we first found out that Audrena was deaf and we were still getting used to the idea of cochlear implants, we were talking about it with our friends, Mike and Mari. Mike said something about all the different kinds of technology that people use these days, and people would probably just think Audrena was wearing something like a bluetooth headpiece. I kind of remember just nodding and thinking that maybe there was something to that. Well, as it turns out, I have heard a lot of discussion between CI recipients regarding what random strangers say to them about their implants. Many of them have said that the most common question they get is whether that is some new kind of bluetooth headset! It looks like Mike had the right idea.
