WHAT is Lisa's latest news?

Lisa had an appointment with the surgeon for June 24th. But when she went in for the cat scan, (required before the appointment) She was able to get that appointment moved up to tomorrow morning (Friday, June 5th) ... So in that meeting she should be able to schedule the surgery.
So that will be an exciting appointment... I expect the surgery will be some time in July or August...

She is hoping to talk to him about doing a double implant. She's read on the internet that doing both at the same time saves hospital costs, but also allows the brain to re-learn to hear for both ears in a balanced way.
There are not many who have done both ears, and fewer that have had them at the same time. Our clinic said they've done 2 at the same time once... Our insurance agreed to attempt it...
We'll see if the surgeon is on board...

Thanks for praying... :D
