The Land of Between: From Birth to Cochlear Implant Surgery (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798633780017)

Jodi Michelle Cutler, founder of the Italian Facebook group, "Affrontiamo la Sordit Insieme: Cochlear Implant Forum" wrote The Land of Between: From Birth to Cochlear Implant Surgery to share the experiences she lived with her son Jordan. Jordan was born in Baltimore and diagnosed 12 months later in Tuscany with profound bilateral sensorineural hearing loss. Jodi shares past and present moments lived with her children Jordan and Sofia in a reality suspended between Italy and the United States. The story takes the reader from the first paralyzing moment of the diagnosis of profound hearing loss to their decision to opt for a Cochlear Implant. Jodi elaborates her doubts, difficulties and emotions leading to the decisive moment of surgery and the activation of the Cochlear Implant. Just as a caterpillar becomes a chrysalis and then a butterfly, Jodi and her children grow through the various phases of their journey in hearing loss, and learn that patience and faith lead to a deeper kind of love.
