Implanted AgeYoung AdultHearing LossSince BirthImplantedRightBorn with a bilateral profound hearing loss, I grew up refusing to accept "no" for an answer. I achieved the highest rank possible with numerous awards in the Royal Canadian Air Cadets and graduated from college. After college, I received my cochlear implant. My success with the cochlear implant allowed me to start up my own company and now I am a Senior Manager of Information Technology. Active with the Canadian Hard of Hearing Association and with the BEA, I am dedicated to helping others.

Implanted AgeToddler or PreschoolerHearing LossSince BirthImplantedBothWe are Greg and Stephanie Hawkins, and we are the parents of two fantastic kiddos who happen to each have CI’s. Max is 7 and has had his since he was just a year old. Claire is 4 and has had one since she was one, and she received her 2nd when she was 3. The CI has proven to be a life-changing technology for our children. With the CI, even though both of them have a profound hearing loss, they are listening and speaking communicators. That is amazing!!
