Implanted AgeOlder AdultHearing LossSlowly ProgressiveImplantedRightI 'm the husband of Sue, an AB Naida CI recipient. Until I met her I had never experienced life with a deaf person and it was an interesting learning curve! My hobbies are watching Rugby, playing badminton and travelling around in our Motorhome. I live in Leicestershire.
Implanted AgeMiddle-aged AdultHearing LossRapidly ProgressiveImplantedLeftWhen I was 6 years old I lost my right ear to Meningitis. As a teen and young adult I was always on a quest for better hearing. With only one ear that was slowly getting progressively worse and my hearing hearing aid no longer helping I looked at my future as being deaf. That was not acceptable to me. In 2014 I started to do research on cochlear implants. Wow, I can't believe I waited this long. I was born and raised in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.
