Implanted AgeInfant or Young ToddlerHearing LossSuddenImplantedBothI am the proud father of Wania Tanveer, a wonderful girl who is performing great at school and is also active in sports. I am very happy that I took the correct decision at the right time and got my daughter a cochlear implant.
Implanted AgeOlder AdultHearing LossSlowly ProgressiveImplantedBothI grew up hearing perfectly but as a young adult was diagnosed with Meniere’s in both ears. This results in wearing hearing aids for 18 years. By this time I was relying on lip reading and my life was turned upside down. I got my two CI’s and I am not shy anymore. I love being with people and each day is pure joy.

Was I was nervous, Oh yes!!, i was thinking am I doing the right thing? would everything go well?.. The porter put my bed to the side of a young man with learning difficulties, he was also waiting for an operation. He was really scared & wanted to go home..
