THIS is what makes humanity beautiful.

I have two c.i and I love them the first words out of my mouth were “that’s what you sound like” I said that to my step dad I have never been happier that is exactly how I explain it to others

It should be added that the implant gets it's power through induction from the outside part of the equipment.
So the implant has no battery and doesn't need to be replaced.
Modern inplants are even compatible with MRI systems.
So patients with an implant can get an MRI exam without being hurt and without damaging or destroying the implant. Amazing technology 🙂

I have two implants. Life changing. You are amazing and the most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen.

Hello from NZ.
My son is 22 and has used a CI since the age of 7. I am looking at getting him an aqua kit for Christmas so he can swim and be able to hear the water for the first time.
Thank you for sharing ❤

Hey Jodie I’ve been very interested in your videos as I am deaf and have been from birth, I have always worn a cochlear implant, and I’m a deaf swimmer and to see you so passionate it makes me so happy 🎉

The outter magnet holds onto another magnetic device implanted in the skull. There is an electromagnetic coil on the battery side sending audio signals received from the microphone over to the coil which is implanted. This transference of signal between the outter and implanted coil is because when current goes through a coiled wire like that near another coiled wire an electromagnetic field is formed and then induced into the coil nearby if that makes sense. That digital signal in that implanted coil then goes to stimulate the nerve that the brain usually gets signals of audio from our natural ears. It is a kind of pad with various electrical points of contact.

My 12yo son has just had bilateral cochlear implant surgery due to having pendred syndrome. His activation date is the 23rd of this month. Hoping he gets on OK with them after 9 years or hearing aids 🤞

everyone remember cochlear implant don't cure deafness, it depends for everyone. Like my old friend have one but she can hardly hear with it, but for me it works well for me and hear good but still its hard to hear esspecilly when ure in public and loud noises in the background it can cause me headaches due a lot of noises going on you cannot control it. we hear it more like robotic sounds unlike hearing people hear so i dont have idea what everything actuallly sounds like! hope it helps to clear up things.

I am think of becoming an ENT surgeon, this video kinda gave me hope

[ChildofAphrodite]

I’m deaf as well! Since birth! (Severe to profoundly hearing loss on both ears) I have bilateral cochlear implants by a brand called cochlear which I have 22 electrodes in both sides. I got my first side when I was one and then moons later I got my 2nd one and my reaction was….not the best u could say

[DjLuCKyCHaRM]

I have Ménière’s disease and wear hearing aids already. I’m deaf in my right ear from birth and my left ear is going down hill. So, I believe in my future I’ll have to get a CI. Thanks for sharing. Btw I like your accent.

[Anthony_GrayCat]

I have the same thing. I was born deaf and i appreciate that i have those cuz without them i would be TOTALLY ALONE hearing nothing but loud noises and my inner voice..

YOUR LOCAL ASL LESSON. DAY 1. PENCIL/ PEN & PAPER🤚🤌
how to do it: put all your fingers up, and with the other hand, do what the emoji is doing idk how to explain.. and put the 🤌 hand on the five, and there ya go!
that means pencil/ pen 🤌 paper🤚
🤚 means 5 or paper, all you have to do to let a deaf person understand is put it in a sentence that fits with it. ASL (american sign language) is extremely easy to learn and understand once you get the hang of it, i started learning from birth, and all the people i’m around are deaf. my mom, dad, grandpa, grandma. but my siblings aren’t, except my baby brother. i’m hearing, and i love it, but sometimes i do wish i was deaf. lol 😅
COPY THIS SO PEOPLE CAN LEARN ❤❤❤❤❤❤
