Cochlear implants 12.7.17

Today is the big day!  Surgery began at 630 am.  Arrival was 545 am.  The expected length of the surgery is 8 hours.  This morning was one of the most difficult hand offs.  Angelica is so much more aware of her surroundings.  Praying this is the last surgery/procedure for some time.  Angelica is doing well.  They are working on the right side first.  Dr. Harshburger our plastic surgeon was present this morning to assist Dr. Roehm the ENT in placement.  They have mapped her nerves and are moving forward with insertion of the device. I will continue to update this blog throughout the day.
