- [00:00:07.030]Two,
- [00:00:09.170]three,
- [00:00:12.050]four,
- [00:00:13.840]five,
- [00:00:15.400]Remember, ninety-six is the number you're trying
- [00:00:17.010]to work your way back up to,
- [00:00:18.010]but we're going to start it just a little bit lower, okay?
- [00:00:20.320]So if it's a little loud, tell me right off the bat
- [00:00:22.288]and we can turn it down a little bit
- [00:00:24.050]and gradually work you up, okay?
- [00:00:25.329]Okay, okay.
- [00:00:26.162]Alright, here we go.
- [00:00:27.810]Okay, so I'm going to start,
- [00:00:29.310]but then I can change it.
- [00:00:31.000]Yep, leave it.
- [00:00:31.833]Because I'm already on off.
- [00:00:32.670]Yep, you got it all highlighted,
- [00:00:33.503]so this is the big one.
- [00:00:34.596]Alright.
- [00:00:35.429]You can start it, it's-it's game time.
- [00:00:37.094]Okay,
- [00:00:37.927]Alright, here we go.
- [00:00:38.760]Are you ready?
- [00:00:40.453]Here we go.
- [00:00:44.400]I heard it.
- [00:00:46.440]Can you hear me out of your ear right now?
- [00:00:47.807]It's loud.
- [00:00:48.709]Mhmm.
- [00:00:49.542]It's buzzing.
- [00:00:50.375]Turn it down a little bit, two or three.
- [00:00:53.220]Is it a little overwhelming to you?
- [00:00:56.877]Well,
- [00:00:57.710]Can you...
- [00:00:58.543]It's annoying.
- [00:00:59.376](all laugh)
- [00:01:00.430]Some of the sounds are going to sound
- [00:01:01.870]a little bit weird.
- [00:01:02.703]Yeah.
- [00:01:03.536]So, can you hear me well
- [00:01:04.680]through it right now?
- [00:01:06.560]Can you understand what I'm saying through it?
- [00:01:08.600]No.
- [00:01:09.433]Okay, and that's fine.
- [00:01:10.530]All I hear is the noise.
- [00:01:11.442]Yeah.
- [00:01:12.420]Yeah.
- [00:01:13.253]Okay, so it's gonna get a little bit better
- [00:01:15.290]over time. We gotta gradually work it up.
- [00:01:17.309]Yeah.
- [00:01:18.142]There's a big misconception
- [00:01:19.330]I feel like when people
- [00:01:20.250]first get these things turned on,
- [00:01:21.545]Well, yeah, yeah, no, I'm just hearing noise.
- [00:01:23.930]Yeah, for sure. Okay.
- [00:01:25.694]What I'm going to do is I'm gonna cover my mouth up
- [00:01:28.530]and I'm going to make some sounds,
- [00:01:30.030]and I just want you to try to mimic them back to me, okay?
- [00:01:33.337]Ahhhh.
- [00:01:36.060]Yeah.
- [00:01:37.484]Eeeeee.
- [00:01:38.794]Ahhhh
- [00:01:39.879]There we go.
- [00:01:41.042]Ooooo.
- [00:01:43.181]Ooooo.
- [00:01:44.264]Mhmm. Shhh.
- [00:01:46.330]Shhh.
- [00:01:48.013]Sssss
- [00:01:49.290]Sssss, I don't know.
- [00:01:51.643]Eeeee.
- [00:01:53.031]Mmmmm.
- [00:01:54.282](with pizazz) Mmm, Mmmmm.
- [00:01:55.799]Ooo, ooo.
- [00:01:56.757](chuckles under breath)
- [00:01:57.796](laughing)
- [00:02:03.390]I'm turning it up as I'm talking to you,
- [00:02:05.430]can you tell?
- [00:02:06.263]Oh.
- [00:02:07.280]I know it sounds a little odd.
- [00:02:08.620]It's louder.
- [00:02:09.453]It's getting louder? Good.
- [00:02:10.286]Louder.
- [00:02:11.119]I want to make sure that it's
- [00:02:11.952]comfortable sounding for, I want it to be loud.
- [00:02:14.360]It's loud.
- [00:02:15.528]But I want it to be loud and comfortable
- [00:02:16.970]I don't want it to hurt.
- [00:02:19.797](mumbles)
- [00:02:20.740]You can see them?
- [00:02:22.710]It's out pretty far.
- [00:02:24.180]Alright.
- [00:02:25.140]Is it good enough, then?
- [00:02:25.973]Should be. Alright.
- [00:02:28.745]How does my voice sound to you right now?
- [00:02:31.940]Does it sound clear, does it sound funny
- [00:02:34.690]in comparison to what you heard when you
- [00:02:36.390]first came in here, the first time you ever met me?
- [00:02:39.930]What does it sound like in comparison?
- [00:02:42.170]Am I louder than I used to be?
- [00:02:44.668]I-I wouldn't say it's louder,
- [00:02:46.670]I'd say it's more high pitched.
- [00:02:48.126]Okay.
- [00:02:49.053]And it's, you're the first person...
- [00:02:50.465]You know, you sound like a girl.
- [00:02:51.620]Oh! I'll take that.
- [00:02:53.200]You're the first person to ever tell me that
- [00:02:54.800]so I'll take that.
- [00:02:55.633](laughing)
- [00:02:56.466]I wonder how I sound?
- [00:02:57.380]What does Emily sound like?
- [00:02:58.690]How do I sound?
- [00:03:00.800]Go ahead, say it again.
- [00:03:01.633]How does my female voice sound to you?
- [00:03:04.870]Sounds similar to his, but a little bit different.
- [00:03:07.800]I could probably tell the difference.
- [00:03:09.296]Okay.
- [00:03:10.490]It doesn't sound normal.
- [00:03:12.032]Okay.
- [00:03:13.080]You will get used to that,
- [00:03:14.240]and it will start sounding more normal to you,
- [00:03:16.140]especially when you're using your hearing aid
- [00:03:18.110]in comparison with it.
- [00:03:19.289]Right.
- [00:03:20.122]Okay?
- [00:03:20.955]We're going to try to do a few more words too, okay?
- [00:03:24.550]Airplane.
- [00:03:25.690]Airplane.
- [00:03:26.710]Baseball.
- [00:03:28.070]Baseball.
- [00:03:30.290]I'm going to ask you some random questions,
- [00:03:32.320]and I just want you to tell me the answer to them
- [00:03:34.110]if you understand it, okay?
- [00:03:35.582]Okay.
- [00:03:36.415]_ Alright.
- [00:03:38.370]How did you get here today?
- [00:03:40.740]I drove a car.
- [00:03:42.350]Do you know your mailman?
- [00:03:45.690]Yes.
- [00:03:46.940]What is his name?
- [00:03:48.398]It's a lady named Karen.
- [00:03:52.950]This is getting me.
- [00:03:53.783]I know.
- [00:03:54.850]I'm having a hard time, sorry.
- [00:03:57.010]Okay.
- [00:03:58.330]You're doing really, really well.
- [00:03:59.674](laughing)
- [00:04:01.670]You're basically having to learn
- [00:04:03.250]what sounds sound like again.
- [00:04:06.650]You are one of the best lip readers
- [00:04:08.400]I have ever met in my entire life.
- [00:04:10.728]So that's why I'm trying to give you a sound,
- [00:04:13.040]what it sounds like, before I tell you
- [00:04:14.810]what I'm actually saying.
- [00:04:16.340]Yeah.
- [00:04:17.173]Does that make sense?
- [00:04:18.006]Yeah.
- [00:04:18.839]Good.
- [00:04:19.672]What we're going to do is you're going to
- [00:04:20.505]have this as a program to start with
- [00:04:22.720]and I'm going to give you three more
- [00:04:24.790]that you're going to, every few days,
- [00:04:26.270]you're going to click that one,
- [00:04:27.290]and it's going to get a little bit louder,
- [00:04:28.720]and a little bit louder,
- [00:04:29.801]because I want to work you up where you need to
- [00:04:31.930]be hearing everything,
- [00:04:33.410]that way we can start working on you
- [00:04:34.870]understanding speech a little bit better with Katie, too.
- [00:04:40.290]It's low, but we're going to give it a shot.
- [00:04:44.859]It's really quiet.
- [00:04:49.526](beeping noises)
- [00:04:58.390]It's a lot different when they're
- [00:04:59.250]both working together at the same time, isn't it?
- [00:05:03.770]What do you think?
- [00:05:04.870]This is really loud.
- [00:05:06.010]Yeah, I had a feeling it would be.
- [00:05:09.190]Um, I'm going to save your hearing aid settings
- [00:05:11.580]the way they are, and we can go back
- [00:05:13.110]and we can adjust the implant a little bit.
- [00:05:15.310]Is it painfully loud?
- [00:05:17.240]Yeah? Okay.
- [00:05:18.073]We can turn it down a bit.
- [00:05:19.394]I-I don't hear anything over here.
- [00:05:22.610]Okay.
- [00:05:23.810]Go to fine tuning.
- [00:05:30.120]Is that getting a little bit louder?
- [00:05:31.400]Can you tell a difference in it right now?
- [00:05:37.968]Okay.
- [00:05:39.530]Get a little louder now?
- [00:05:41.600]Slowly but surely?
- [00:05:42.715]It's a little better.
- [00:05:44.030]Okay. Alright.
- [00:05:45.426]Go up a little bit more.
- [00:05:47.110]Is it getting a little bit better and easier to hear?
- [00:05:49.620]Understand?
- [00:05:51.630]Give me a no? Alright.
- [00:05:53.600]Is that a little bit better?
- [00:05:55.070]I think I hear something over here now.
- [00:05:57.110]Okay, go up a little more.
- [00:05:59.434](mumbles)
- [00:06:01.750]Hit All
- [00:06:03.150]Do you still hear that echo thing anymore?
- [00:06:05.450]Is it gone?
- [00:06:06.283]Seems like, not over here. Okay.
- [00:06:08.250]But over here I do. Okay.
- [00:06:09.770]Just seems like they're not totally working together.
- [00:06:12.620]Exactly.
- [00:06:13.560]Well you're hearing completely different
- [00:06:15.260]on the left ear too,
- [00:06:16.093]I don't want to change it too much
- [00:06:17.350]because I want your brain to kind of
- [00:06:18.790]meld those together. Okay?
- [00:06:20.227]Okay, that's fine.
- [00:06:21.111]Okay.
- [00:06:21.944](mumbles)
- [00:06:31.770]Okay.
- [00:06:32.830]Now, I'm going to hit that
- [00:06:33.970]I heard a buzz.
- [00:06:35.010]Okay.
- [00:06:35.843]I'm going to hit the Program button
- [00:06:36.676]tell me if you hear it, okay?
- [00:06:40.321]I got ding, ding ding over here.
- [00:06:41.894]Yep.
- [00:06:43.656]Mhmm.
- [00:06:45.790]So your hearing aid is working in
- [00:06:47.610]conjunction with your implant right now,
- [00:06:49.492]so when you're changing your
- [00:06:51.420]oh, sorry I'm (mumbles)
- [00:06:54.450]Let me switch back,
- [00:06:55.750]There we go.
- [00:06:56.710]This is the first one.
- [00:06:58.060]So when you're hitting that button,
- [00:06:59.640]you're going to hear that many beeps
- [00:07:01.050]for what program you're in.
- [00:07:03.250]So when it beeps once,
- [00:07:04.380]you're in program one. Okay.
- [00:07:06.010]Beeps twice in program two,
- [00:07:07.150]and so on.
- [00:07:07.983]I got it.
- [00:07:08.816]Okay?
- [00:07:09.649]So now you'll be able to find it,
- [00:07:11.032]and if your husband is ever standing close to you,
- [00:07:13.605]and when you're hitting that button,
- [00:07:15.070]there's a little green light
- [00:07:16.330]that will flash Okay.
- [00:07:17.163]as many times as how many
- [00:07:18.230]programs you have Okay.
- [00:07:19.063]so you know for sure, too.
- [00:07:19.896]Okay.
- [00:07:20.729]Okay?
- [00:07:21.562]You can try it if you want.
- [00:07:22.395]Yeah, reach back there
- [00:07:23.228]and hit that button for me.
- [00:07:24.357]Hit it for me.
- [00:07:25.982]Did you hear it beep?
- [00:07:26.960]Well, actually all I hear
- [00:07:28.960]was the ding ding over here.
- [00:07:30.490]It's tell- it's letting you know
- [00:07:31.593]that the program,
- [00:07:32.649]because they're linked together,
- [00:07:34.112]if knows you probably hear a little bit better
- [00:07:35.810]with that one at first.
- [00:07:36.770]Right. It's louder over here.
- [00:07:37.655]Mhmm.
- [00:07:38.488]Okay.
- [00:07:39.321]It's fine.
- [00:07:40.154]Because it's working the same way
- [00:07:41.170]because it's changing the programs
- [00:07:42.340]over here too.
- [00:07:43.173]This is going to be a bit of a process,
- [00:07:44.980]but like I said,
- [00:07:45.813]I want you to read to yourself out loud,
- [00:07:48.080]oh, for, at least an hour a day
- [00:07:51.160]two hours would be preferable
- [00:07:52.490]but I know some people get bored
- [00:07:53.840]reading out loud to themselves
- [00:07:54.956]it's fine.
- [00:07:55.970]Yeah.
- [00:07:56.803]Try to do that.
- [00:07:57.636]If you're watching TV,
- [00:07:58.660]try to have your implant on at all times
- [00:08:00.770]with the TV on too.
- [00:08:02.190]Your husband talking to you,
- [00:08:04.220]get him to talk to you a lot,
- [00:08:05.480]and talk to him kind of slowly
- [00:08:07.100]that way your brain can process
- [00:08:08.980]what those sounds are supposed to sound like, okay?
- [00:08:11.163]Okay.
- [00:08:11.996]Don't be anti-social
- [00:08:13.840]if you can go out and be around people,
- [00:08:15.810]even if it is a little overwhelming
- [00:08:17.433]that's still stimulating that nerve
- [00:08:19.720]in your head and helping it build back up
- [00:08:21.690]to where it needs to be, okay?
- [00:08:23.201]And I'll see you back in a couple of weeks,
- [00:08:25.171]okay? Okay.
- [00:08:26.004]That sounds good.
- [00:08:26.837]Good to see you again.
- [00:08:27.755]Thank you so much.
- [00:08:28.588]You did really well on the first time.
- [00:08:29.781]Yeah.
- [00:08:30.614](laughing)
- [00:08:31.447]Absolutely.
- [00:08:32.280]I'm glad to see you doing so well so quick.
