Mentor Information
My favorite thing about my AB Cochlear implant is
We enjoy watching our son's activities and how he communicates with his AB Cochlear Implants. It is also nice to see Pranesh love his CI and realize its importance while taking care of it. We also love the t-mic feature in his CI as it makes his phone conversations very natural.
With my AB cochlear implant, I can
- Speak clearly
- Talk to others over phone and mobiles
- Hear clearly in class rooms
- Watch TV, use laptops and smart phones comfortably
My favorite sound is
Drum beats
I chose AB because
Of a few additional technical features and the support from AB India. Even after implantation we are being supported constantly and receive frequent updates.
I am a BEA Mentor because
I would like to share the technical features in a layman's perspective with the parents who are considering a CI for their child.
I can help cochlear implant candidates by
Teaching the parents on how to train their ward and provide support and confidence to them after an implant.
