New Year, New Outlook

We are just getting started on Brinley's journey...
Dec 2009 we got the diagnosis of profound bilateral hearing loss. English Terms: Brinley is deaf.

I'll be documenting Brinley's progress every step of the way. This will be my outlet in getting my thoughts on paper (well, computer) and maybe you will get something out of this too. You will learn what it means to be deaf, possibly be inspired to pick up a few sign language books or next time you see a child with hearing aids or Cochlear Implants you will know what it took for that child to get where he/she is today.

Modern technology is amazing!

Waiting Game









Time went by SLOWLY, and do I mean slowly. The girls talked about everything under the sun. Five straight hours to catch up on nails and the latest celebrity gossip. Oh, and to check the surgery patient board. Brinley was 107440. Gigi had the great idea to push two chairs together and Danica ended up napping for 2 hours. Finally over 5 hrs after the surgery began, it ended.
