Cochlear's Nucleus 5

No, I haven't disappeared from the blogging world. With all of our new therapies, I've just been too busy to post lately. I'll update more on all of that at a later time, but for now I have some exciting news: William got his new processors today! He is part of a test study for Cochlear's new Nucleus 5 which, by the way, is absolutely amazing!

The headpiece is so thin and lightweight that he is able to wear it without all of the Babyworn accessories (i.e., cords and clips worn on his shoulders). And he loves it! I love it, too! Especially the remote control! I can control everything from the remote without ever having to take the processor off his ear - volume, program, alarms, troubleshooting, and SO much more!

William also really likes the remote control! Hmmm, I'll have to keep it put away!

And, possibly one of the best features: with it's IP44 protection rating (the only one in the industry, by the way) we don't even have to worry about water so much! So tonight he took his first bath...

...with sound, that is! And of course, sharks are MUCH more interesting when you can hear the tail fin flapping! Very exciting!
