« Here is some news following my last visit to your centre in Quiberon.
I have been able to take back up again my normal workload on the piano and soon will start concerts again. My hyperacusis seems like a bad memory, I just suffer slightly when washing up as well as with some of the very highest notes on my piano.
I therefore owe you many thanks for helping me out of this dreadful hole. I feel that my ears can continue to get stronger. I could never have imagined that it would take so much time !
Not knowing the auditive mechanisms, nor my new limits and feeling still rather convalescent and on reprieve for I don’t know how long, my greatest fear given my profession is damaging my ear again and succeeding in making the tinnitus worse or perhaps reinforcing it. Nevertheless for a month now I no longer need to use ear plugs for public transport or in restaurants (I won’t tempt the devil any longer with the cinema or electronic music).
The special diet as well as the reading out loud exercises have overall done me an enormous amount of good and you have my wholehearted thanks.
I look forward to seeing you again in Quiberon for a third session. Thank you once more for your availability and all that has already been achieved !! »
