Cochlear Implant - Day One

Well we made it to Christchurch. We are settled into Ronald McDonald House. This is a place where people with family in hospital can stay for free. It is seriously flash. It is like a hotel except everything is free (including wireless internet). The kitchen has five different stations all set up so families can cook their meals. Tomorrow night they put on Christmas dinner.

We had our pre-op meeting. The CT showed normal bone formation. There are no abnormalities so it should be pretty straight forward.

There are two other families who have kids getting CIs tomorrow. The surgeon has a full on day.

We will go to the hospital at 11am. Operation is at 2pm. It takes four hours.
