Guest guest Posted November 2, 2004 Report Share Posted November 2, 2004 Hi, , I was just thinking of some things you might like to do that would give you good practice for listening when you get your CI and are activated. Get a tape recorder and some tapes, and have your Mom record a few children's stories for you. Remind her to speak in a slightly slower speed than normal conversation. Along with that, for later in your journey, have her record personal things for you. They can include your childhood history, general family stuff, funny stories, or whatever. It could be a terrific project for Mom to work on now, and a wonderful memory link for you later. Just a thought. ) Jackie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted November 4, 2004 Report Share Posted November 4, 2004 Hi Jackie, Those are terrific ideas -- thanks! My mother has been looking for activities to help keep her busy and I think she'd really enjoy the projects you mentioned. Speaking of my mother, I'm happy to report that she made it successfully through her second chemo treatment with nothing worse than exhaustion.

Guest guest Posted November 4, 2004 Report Share Posted November 4, 2004 , I'm glad to read that your Mom is handling the chemo pretty well. It's a tough thing to go thru. The project from Jackie sounds perfect and I am sure she will enjoy doing it knowing how much it will benefit you. Alice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
