We went to a 4th of July parade and of course we ALL (including Natalie) heard the loud sirens from the fire engines, police cars, etc. A year ago that wasn't even possible. I was reminiscing about that while the trucks were driving past us and the siren was so loud, I wanted to cover my ears and thinking how loud they were. And to think a year ago, that loud of a siren and still Natalie could not hear it. Amazing.

Of course I am thankful for Graeme Clark who helped develop the cochlear implant and for making hearing possible for thousands and thousands of people.

Hooray! It is amazing to read through this blog and see the progression through the months. What a journey! Thank you for sharing it with all of us. Natalie is doing so well! And I'm positive that it's through a lot of time and effort on your part. I loved all the new things she's able to do like pick out which book you're referring to. How awesome!
Happy 4th Natalie! I am so thankful for cochlear implants as well. Rowan loved fireworks this year; in fact I think they were almost too loud!
