Here’s a great way to practice listening skills. Download the free Microsoft Reader and it’ll read books out loud while highlighting the text. Currently, they’re offering free eBooks every week, but these aren’t read out loud. But, I’d be willing to buy books to practice listening. Unfortunately, my @()#*$ sound driver isn’t working right. Gotta get it fixed before paying the rent.
Great news! Cochlear came through! I emailed them about my disappointment and misunderstanding with the color of the CI. They said they will contact my audiologist and arrange a swap. That’s what I call awesome customer service. Cochlear rules!
