First hearing test in 7 years.

So I finally worked up a nerve to get my ears tested since we werent able to afford it. I have lost 76% in my left and 72% in my right ear and I was disappointed in myself for getting them check yearly like I was suppose to and I realized my baby was talking more and I didnt want to miss out anymore then I already have the last 2 years. I am amazed how much technology is out there now for us deaf and hard of hearing people. My husband's work insurance covers $5,000 dollars of hearing aids and every 3 years I will need new aids. I ended up getting some bad ass hearing aids!! Top of the line ones...I am very proud to announce we ended up spending $4,751.32 dollars on these bad girls lol. I got 2 chestnut browns aids very small behind the ears ones, with hot pink & glitters molds. Comes with a remote to control the tv adapter [a streamer] a port for my tv,mp3 player,and a thing for my phones [includes my home phone] like a blue tooth thing & a mic for people to talk into to get my direct attention,they promise me that it will blocked out the wind and background noise! Awesomeness right?!? I know I was so EXCITED I even screamed in the elevator on our way out to our car lol. I will be getting them next Monday [ I know I have to wait a whole week for them,I am bummed] I wanted to borrow their example for the week but they couldnt loan them out =[ But when I do get them I will for sure post pictures of everything before I install them all lol. So I have warranty on them for 2 years and all I have to worry about is being very careful with them on the 3rd year until I get new ones,By then who knows what new technology they come out with then lol. Well other then that I am a happy lucky girl. Lets hope I will prove my mom wrong about wearing them lol [love you mom]. Anyways see ya next time.

Brian's surgery [Tuesday morning]

Brian's surgery went GREAT. He was walking yesterday without his cane for the first time in a month =] Well this morning he woke up in severe pain and very sore,But of course he is up and walking around because his doctor ordered him to continue his normal routines. He goes back on the 14th for his post check up.

[The day of his surgery 4/05]

I will post his picture of his back when its fully healed.

[April 11th...The tape kept coming off so I took it off. Its healing and its the size of a pencil lead. My camera phone doesnt do any justice for this picture. Its not bad as it looks.]

He has a check up this Thursday @ 2pm I will update what the doctor said about his back =]
