Maybe it's just that we're all trying to interpret what the other is thinking -- and we're getting it wrong. And maybe we all agree, but there are others out there who have a different perspective that none of us like.
So, you know my view: I don't think CI surgery "fixes" my child or her hearing, because she remains deaf, the hair cells in her cochlea don't transmit sound in the form of electrical signals to her auditory nerve, her cochlea hasn't been replaced or repaired. And I didn't and don't have any expectation such a repair would take place.
Do you think differently -- that CI surgery is a fix for deafness, that Li-Li and Miss Kat and every child with a working CI has been fixed and are no longer deaf?
