Danielle: Heidi, Your blog is amazing! You shouldn't play it down when people ask about it like you did with me. I can't wait for Ivy to experience all the incredible things you talk about. I've read from 01/16/07 to current in one sitting. Hope all is well. See you soon.

Heidi: Hey, Bonnie, I just noticed your message on this tag board, and it's already the new year! I hope your Thanksgiving and Christmas was filled with blessings! Thank you so much for keeping in touch!

Bonnie: Heidi, I've been out of town and haven't checked your log in about 3 weeks. Thanks for answering my question. It's such interesting technology. It's cool to think that it can continue to improve over time.Hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving. You have something new to be thankful for now! Hallelujah!

Mary Ann: Way to go Heidi!! Glad the nerve is responding! Take it easy1

Shelly: I'm excited for you and your Cochlear Implant surgery. You will be able to hear a bit better. Do welcome many exciting sounds to ur CI ear.

me--Heidi: Some of you have asked about this tag board. It can be whatever--any of you are more than welcome to post here! There are many options on my blog to drop in and stay "hi!" The interaction makes it even more fun for me to blog! Thanks again for all of your support.

Joe: We are pleased to hear that the surgery went well and hope that the dizziness goes away soon.

Ruth: Friday, June 22 8:30 amHeidi is feeling better today-she says she doesn't have any pain but is still dizzy. She hasn't eaten much but says she doesn't feel hungry. She is staying in bed - Michael gave her a bell but I am not sure that I will hear it from the family room. I told her to yell--"Mom" and I will come running. I will keep checking every so often!! When she is feeling better, I am sure that she will be writing an update.

Ruth (Heid's mother): Heidi wanted me to send a short message saying that she got home around 4. Everything went well --according to the doctor the surgery couldn't have gone better. She is still dizzy when she tries to get up--she needs help-but basically is feeling good. (Looks better now than when she first came home) We will update more tomorrow.
