I can hear you

Hello:

I have a hearing aid finally. It is a Bernafon brand hearing aid (PRIO). It is very small and fits discretely in my ear. At day three, I can still feel it. However, you cannot see it from the front or back, but you can see it from the side if you are staring in my ear. It is not fully tuned yet. Things sound different. You have to wear it to grow accustomed to sound again, especially the sound of your own voice. It sounds like it is coming from somewhere else or from a recorder. I imagine I will get familiar with new sounds over the next few weeks. I am really happy about this-I feel like I have a part of me back.
