Good job. Give your child every opportunity and ignore the nonsense from the deaf community. Deafness IS A DISABILITY that modern medical technology can help to alleviate. It's miraculous!
Hi there, how was his surgery and post surgery? My 1.5 year old son will be getting his CI next month, and I am quite worried and not sure what to expect.
@blackalien6873 wow how ignorant of you! I work with a deaf child with 2 cochlear implants, even with these he totally relies on sign. He doesn't fit in with the hearing world because doesn't know what people are saying and they don't understand his speech. Many hearing people don't allow their deaf children to sign and they end up isolated with mental health issues. Cochlear implants are not a fix, you are still deaf!
Ask Patrick Costello about how Cochlear should honor their customer service commitments. Hopefully publicly they will make things right. If they don't, then I wouldn't do business with them. Good companies don't leave patients "high and dry" without the ability to hear. How good is a cure if it's not supported?

Look at the way her daddy is looking at her with so much proud 💗💗💗💗😭
Right!
I needed to watch this. My son is 1 years old and he will be getting his cochlear implant next week.

Mary's a really empathetic interviewer - seems like she listens well, remembers the details of what the guests have said and asks great follow-up q'n
Brave girl! What a wonderful family 💖
Thank you for sharing your journey . It’s so helpful for parents with kids going for cochlear implants
What cochlear implant brand she used?

It’s not a cure and implants don’t work for everyone
Can I let my hair grow back after receiving the implant ?
Yes, there not too much shaving going on at all during the surgery, and after you can let it grow
Her speech is perfect except for the
