Well folks,
I went to see Jenna today. I remembered to take the things in the small bag
that came with Victor, but you know what? I didn't need to; they were fake,
and they belong to Victor! Haha! She gave me a big box, maybe about 18
inches long, 10 inches wide and 8 inches deep. It contains the two
processors and alternative ear-hook sizes and something that goes around
your ear so it fits snugly. Other items include disposable and rechargeable
batteries and recharger with adapter, a supply of microphone covers,
accessories that you can plug into sound sources like TV and portable CD
player, a dry-&-store container that has a crystal, a place for the
processor without the batteries, and a long light bulb that takes the
moisture out of the system. She recommended that I put my hearing aid in
there also. Of course, there are reading materials, along with a DVD, that
are useful, but we don't know yet if there is anything like a manual in
Braille format; she'll find out. If not, maybe we can find it online, like
I have for other products. If not that, maybe they can scan something and
send it via email.
At first, I handled things gingerly as I learned to unattach and reattach
parts. She encouraged me by saying that the products are sturdy. I guess
they have to be, for kids to use them. I'm still uncomfortable about
pulling some things out, like the batteries, for fear that they'll fly! :)
some of the parts are hard to do, but I'll probably get good at it with
practice and maybe some finger-strength training. There is a keychain with
a small container where you can store extra batteries, but we both have a
hard time opening it, so I doubt if I'll use it.
It sure helps when you can learn things hands-on, doesn't it? I'll have the
second half of the waiting period to play around with these things.
Now on to the big day!
I have something to share with you. Please visit:
