HearPeers Heroes Mary Beth Posted April 16, 2017 HearPeers Heroes Report Share Posted April 16, 2017 Adam, I am so sorry to hear this. You have a great attitude and I know it will help you heal. Sending healing thoughts your way. Are you able to wear both processors while you heal or are you don to only one processor at the moment?

HearPeers Heroes Adam Posted April 16, 2017 Author HearPeers Heroes Report Share Posted April 16, 2017 I am able to wear both. That whole area is tender and swollen but the coil still stays on Julesrdh 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HearPeers Heroes Matt Posted April 25, 2017 HearPeers Heroes Report Share Posted April 25, 2017 Hey mate, I saw on FB that you were back under the knife. Gotta be time to put some velcro on there. Hope you're feeling better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HearPeers Heroes Mary Beth Posted April 26, 2017 HearPeers Heroes Report Share Posted April 26, 2017 Hi Matt, Where in the world are you traveling now? Haven't seen a recent picture of you and a Med-El audiologist from another country in awhile! Smile. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HearPeers Heroes Matt Posted April 26, 2017 HearPeers Heroes Report Share Posted April 26, 2017 Hahaha. I'm at home for a while - will be heading to Europe later this year and will plan a visit to HQ in Austria if I can. Not sure if I posted my pic from Taiwan? I went swimming with the processor and had to visit the importer there for a check up. Julesrdh 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HearPeers Heroes Adam Posted April 26, 2017 Author HearPeers Heroes Report Share Posted April 26, 2017 Hey mate, I asked him if he could install a zipper to make it easier for the next one. I thought it was a great idea but he wasn't on board. Oh well. I am home now plan on returning to work soon. I did make it a year and a half without a surgery though. No back to square one.

HearPeers Heroes Cara Mia Posted April 27, 2017 HearPeers Heroes Report Share Posted April 27, 2017 Adam, I am glad to hear that you are fine now. I wish it would be the last surgery you needed. But if it is not the case, at least I wish you have longer spans between surgeries each time it is necessary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HearPeers Heroes Adam Posted April 27, 2017 Author HearPeers Heroes Report Share Posted April 27, 2017 I appreciate all the kind words and thoughts from everyone. This was surgery number 40 for me. Only my 19th brain surgery though. ? I'll keep plugging away, one foot in front of the other. My wife noticed some symptoms I was having and brought it up to me.i denied it was the shunt as I desperately did not want another surgery. I ended up going to the hospital as I went downhill pretty quickly. Sure enough, the little bugger wasn't working. Another year and a half would be fantastic Cara. I'd gladly take that Julesrdh 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HearPeers Heroes Adam Posted April 29, 2017 Author HearPeers Heroes Report Share Posted April 29, 2017 Admitted back in the hospital tonight. Another possible brain surgery. Will know in the next day or so had to explain that I was deaf to the nurse as "but you can hear me fine" came out of his mouth. Not if my processors are off..
