Thank you for all the great feedback on the Blogger Highlight series. I’ve enjoyed meeting each blogger and sharing their site with you. This week, we highlight Taking Each Day Free. Liz’s writing is inspiring, and will leave you wanting more.
Taking Each Day Free
My name is Liz and I have been blogging a good number of years, whether its using the WordPress or Blogger platform.
I decided to write this blog, to share some of my life journeys.
Taking each day as it comes is the only way I can tackle life and it has been this way for some time. Each day I am free to do as I please. I have no one to answer to, but myself. So hence the title of this blog, “Taking Each Day Free.”
Liz has had a long and difficult journey to getting a cochlear implant.
For my cochlear implant, everything is under the tag “My-Cochlear-Implant-Journey. At the moment, I don’t have my CT scan results. So until I have those, I don’t know if it will still be happening. It all depends on my CT scan results.
I have added the link below for my tag link:

Questions I asked Liz
M. How has blogging changed your life?
L. I have been blogging for much longer than the years, writing my current blog. But it’s always served the same purpose:
• Being therapeutic
For keeping in touch with friends near and far.
M. What is your favorite post and why?
L. My favourite post is a hard one to pick. But I think my favourite post is one I wrote this year, “What makes you feel good?” This one is my favourite post because it serves as a reminder to me what things I need to keep doing that make me feel good both physically and mentally, along with my other physical exercises I do that I have mentioned in other posts.

Thank you for choosing me as part of the Blogger Highlight series.
I have learnt via a letter this month that my CT scan was satisfactory and so my surgeon is happy to carry on with the assessment.
I go back to see my surgeon later this month after an appointment was discussed via a text today. So, if after chatting with him I am still happy to proceed, then it will be 6 months approximately the waiting time from that appointment to the surgery.

I’m so glad the CT Scan worked out but such a shame you have to wait 6 months. At least now there is light at the end of the tunnel. Let me whisper in your ear, write a book about you experience, I’m sure you’re not alone and other with medical chalets can also relate to the book. It will give them hope for a bighter future. :)

Thank you. Many have mentioned about writing a book when I used to write a deaf blog. But I didn’t want to do that.
When I wrote my previous blog which was similar writing as I do now in my current blog, people mentioned about writing a book with the different life experiences I have had. Not just my deafness. I was nearly tempted. But no. I will just stick with sharing on my blog. I am aware a lot of time goes into creating a book and it’s not something I want to do with what has been going on and the cochlear implant journey I will face.
It’s a long time on the NHS for a cochlear implant as there are different hoops to jump through to make sure you are eligible and suitable for a cochlear implant. I have jumped through a majority of those hoops as my posts written so far will show. But the 6 months approximate waiting time for operation is a good waiting time. It’s considered quick when it comes to the NHS.
Once I have had the operation and I am healed from that, it will then it will be switch on and that will just be just the start of my journey as it will take continuous work from me with my cochlear implant to get the best I can from it and to discover new kind of hearing again. 😊

Everything with the NHS is a long time. So disappointing. I know several people in England. I understand about the hard work, I’ve planned to write a book for over a year and I forget or maybe just not that motivated. :) Hear’s to a bright future.
