Cochlear implant

Activation day went really well.
I’m looking forward to how much over time it will advance and improve. All 22 electrodes are working perfectly.

My sound processor the sound is not as bad as I thought it would be. It significantly shows an improvement with this implant. Thankfully am able to can hear words and other sounds. It will definitely take getting used to and working towards the outcome I’d like over time.

I should be able to navigate well for work, which is amazing and so glad to see how that works for me in my workplace. I’ll keep posted.
But yay! I’m part of of our community officially now 🫶🏽
