Life in stereo
Lately I’ve been paying attention to how things sound, where the sound is coming from, and the beauty of hearing in stereo. It hit me hard a few days ago that there will be a days/occasions/every day events prior to my surgery that will be full of “lasts.”
- The last time I hear the music in church in my right ear.
- The last time I’ll hear my kids call for me and hear it in my right ear.
- The last time I will be able to sit on either side of Jake and have a conversation using both my ears to listen to what is said.
It’s hard to say how I’ll react, but I’m guessing there will be many tears shed as I grieve the loss of 1/2 of one my 5 senses.
