My Cochlear Implant Journey with Carrie Spangler

Marathon Set Backs

It has been a while since I have posted a blog post for hearingspanglish.blog and I am glad that you are with me today. I was hesitant to write the blog and to publish it. Why? Because I really wanted to write about my cochlear implant marathon from the view of rainbows and unicorns.

GRIT: When you fall down, you get back up!

Part of the cochlear implant marathon is getting back up after a set back. In my last blog I talked about how during the cochlear implant marathon we may have set backs along the way.

Marathon Road to Recovery

The marathon CI journey set back is getting back into the race. On Dec 3, I underwent re-implantation CI surgery. Helen Keller once said “Optimism is the faith that leads to achievement”.

Relieved and Grateful

I am back and running in the CI marathon! When I published the #hearingspanglish blog titled “Marathon Setbacks”, I was hesitant to share with all of you this part of the story.
