He's been incredible through this ordeal.
Someone was talking about his voice, and so on. He said one day that because of his hearing loss, which he was unaware was as bad as it was, his voice (to him) sounded like a chipmunk (too high and fast) and he had the technicians slow him down until he sounded normal to himself. That was the period when to us, his voice sounded deep and, I don't know, pretentious or something -- un-Rush-like.
Anyway, he has sounded perfectly normal for the past few weeks and, except for the almost imperceptible pause while the reads the caller's remarks, one wouldn't even know he was deaf.
I am so thankful for this surgery though, as I don't know how long one could go in that total blankness of sound and still sound the same.
But what I wanted to ask you, Right, was about music. Whenever he plays his Christmas bump music, I feel sad that he can't enjoy music anymore; it meant so much to him. Can you enjoy music with your implant?
