Save The Date!!!

We made two steps forward today...and this mom is more excited (and a little nervous to be honest) than words can say right now!

Peek A Boo

Let's rewind a little - I woke up today thinking, Day 14.  Today is Day 14 of the 7 to 21 days we were informed it could take to get insurance to approve the cochlear implant surgery.  And little did I know that Day 14 was our lucky day.  We got a phone call today from Boys Town NRH to let us know that they had approved the cochlear implant surgery for Chloe!  Happy Dance (with tears of course)!  It is still a little fuzzy if both sides will be covered as actual paperwork didn't indicate times two, but we are going to take it one "ear" at a time.

Still hadn't had much time to process all of the excitement, items on my to-do list and the second phone call came.  Boys Town NRH called to schedule the surgery.  We have a date!!  As things are scheduled now, Chloe will have surgery on JULY 24 to implant the processor on her right ear.  Happy Dance (with more tears of course)!  Now, things can change from now until then but we are praying that Chloe remains healthy and we are given green light go for surgery.

On a side note, Chloe currently has an ear infection on her right ear - just started antibiotics and ear drops tonight.  The tubes are doing their job and allowing for the infection to drain and not build up and since we have time, I think we will be able to clear things up by then.  

Thankfully the family is busy with all sort of activities - July 24 will be here before we know.
