The big day is just around the corner. Kate's implant will be activated Monday morning. This is one of those thing that it feels like you wait forever for, and yet I can't believe that it is already hear. I am very excited, the nervous stomach started earlier today.
I am trying to keep my expectations in check. Every kid is different, and every kid responds differently. If the implant is successful I think that Kate will respond very positively. She does have some sound awareness, and gets quite excited when she hears something. She loves to babble away at us, so I think that she is going to love hearing us talk. Of course, this is just what I think...she may react completely differently.
One thing that I know for sure, the implant activation is no the end of the process... it is really the beginning. There is a lot of hard work ahead, for both myself and Kate. Kate is not only very bright, but very strong-willed. That strong-will has left me exhausted and exasperated at times, but in this case I think that strong-will is going to serve her well.
Please keep her in your prayers... and check back Monday evening or Tuesday morning.

I am so excited to see this amazing world open up for Kate and you too! I will pray for peace for Mommy and a sense of excitement for Kate as she experiences hearing for the first time... What a joy to know that God is working in her little life so much already!
Oh, and I LOVE the new blog look!
I will keep you in my prayers this week, praying for success in her hearing and patience as you begin this new process whatever the results. I will be anxiously waiting to hear the news too!!!
This is all so exciting! Kate is in my prayers and I can't wait to read about the results. I'm sure it will be such a joy to watch Kate hear for the first time.
I am so excited for your family! This will change so much for Kate, you and Meigan. (even though Meigan would rather things stay the same ;o) A whole new world is just around the corner for Kate! Just think, even just a year ago this was out of her reach. What a blessing! She is a blessing to see blossom!
PS- I love the new blog look. Very fashionable!
Just wanted to leave a little note letting you know that Grace and I will be praying especially tonight and during the day tomorrow.
May God's peace calm your heart Beth and may you find strength as you lean on His arms.
Love ya!
I am praying for you guys - i can't wait to hear the results. What a blessing for you to be able to change her life with the wonderful gift of hearing :)
