Teacher Mom

Whew, after the implant, the most crucial part is the rehabilitation and speech therapy ,,,, for almost 4 years of Katrina's life she haven't hear any sound so now slowly, we are introducing her to the noise of the world,,,,for almost 4 months we travel from Las Pinas to Quezon City just to have one hour speech therapy session...commute , we don't have car, I'm so happy that for the first month she already say mama, papa and recognize her name...simply simply words but enough for me, for now. Next week, we will end the speech therapy , Katrina was sponsored for 50 free sessions (praise the Lord) , we only have 6 sessions left,,,then finished. It costs a lot, i won't say figures...I sit and think , what's next. I dont want to work again, to leave them again to a nanny...I research again , and realized I might do it by myself (with the help of the God)..I asked my fellow parents abroad to how will i start, attend seminar but the truth is I'm afraid, i know my weakness and that is PATIENCE plus the atmosphere of the house and my 2 older kids , Can I do it? i already ask her therapist how.Please pray for me,,,i really want my daughter to talk just like other hearing kids Teacher Mom , speech therapist? good luck to me

MAPPING

For 2 weeks, Katrina throws tantrums everytime i turn her processor on, and i got scared that she might be hurting , so , today we went to her audiologist , to adjust her mapping, after the aided test, she didn't cry when it turned on.

Her audiologist adjusted it , and i was so amazed when she signed thumps up and hugs me. There is no problem with her processor it's her all along, she just don't want it to turn it on when we are at home. Maybe, she thought , it's only for therapy and mapping.

Tsk, tsk , tsk for now on, i have to be strict she have to wear it upto waking up .....

FACEBOOK

HI, i just joined facebook so i can reach more of my ci friends and group...i want to join as many as i can, I feel so restless and impatience with my daugther speech...and her attitude towards her hearing, oh God! I hope i can pass foward the world..

If you can see our stories in our other web , how we started and how we reach our goal just to get her implanted , now, the long way on therapy. Well, i know we will get it over,if she will just let me turn on the processor without a fight,,,,

Im so happy i got to know new people who might give me a very good advices...

So, from now on i'll do this blog everyday.
