Mentor Information
My favorite thing about my AB Cochlear implant is
All the accessories and upgrades!
With my AB cochlear implant, I can
Talk on a cellphone, listen to conversations without lipreading, watch movies and tv without relying much on captioning.
My favorite sound is
A cat purring.
I chose AB because
It's an American company, has better reliability, and is on the cutting-edge of sound processing strategies.
I am a BEA Mentor because
I like introducing hearing impaired people to the wonders of cochlear implants.
I can help cochlear implant candidates by
Pointing them in the right direction on research and advocacy about cochlear implants. I did extensive research not only on AB, but other brands as well. I also advocate for candidates to get implanted.
