CI20 Episode 5 - My Cochlear Implant Activation

CELEBRATING 20 YEARS OF BIONIC HEARING, March 19th 2001 is the day my life changed. Episode 5 captures the moment my cochlear implant was switched on for the very first time, retold twenty years later. Thank you to my Audiologist, and to the Cochlear Implant Programme at the RNTNE in London. And thank YOU for watching this as I celebrate 20 years of bionic hearing - my very own CI20.

My wife fully and suddenly lost her hearing last year. Switch on is in two weeks. What a year it has been. Thank you for this video to give me an insight into what might happen.
We really are hoping for the best.

Oh wow! Thanks for leaving this comment - I'm keeping my fingers crossed for a fantastic activation. A friend of mine gave me some top tips for anyone getting an implant: Practise, Perseverance, Patience. ;-)
