Jerome

you have asked endless questions and continue to do so you have said

many times you don't like where you are at in life you look to a device to

make your life be it a HA or CI you want the instant magical fix

and it isn't gonna happen a HA won't be perfect and a CI sure as hell

isn't normal hearing it seems you tried HA's yet you never committed to

using one for any length of time to see for fact if this or that HA will help

you have said

it costs money for a 30 day trail yet getting a CI sure isn't cheap

it sounds like money isn't the issue but it's used an another excuse to take

responsibility to do as your doctor and audies have suggested and commit to

wearing a HA for a trail you seemed to have an endless list of " reasons "

why

you don't want a HA and you don't want a CI or you do want a HA or a CI

these " reasons " are not real .. they are excuses you use them to not

take responsibility in following through you use them to find

" reasons "

why getting a CI may not be a good idea (linda for example when even linda

has said she is happy she got her CI)

you look and search to find " reasons " for not going ahead with either HA

or CI

stop looking robert said a CI isn't a gamble but i think it is

.... to an extent

some people get almost perfect hearing while others never get that close

some have all sorts of reaction to the implant while others it's clear

sailing some can use the phone without any problems while others can't

use it at all people know all this going in yet again and again

many people are implanted daily they want this CI more than not

they have made a decision and took the responsibility to follow through

nothing and no one would stand in their way if it took fighting

insurance companies or getting married then this is what was done to get their

CI you're not there now simple as that

rick i was talking about other members on this forum who have had a hard time

fighting their insurance companies to approve a CI also i remember

cherry all set for his CI and then it all fell through so the two flew off

to

vegas i think and got married so he could get this CI

i mean this was way out there .... tons of love too ... but getting a CI was

something they were going to get one way or another my point is when

you have done the research, talked to docs and audies, looked inside yourself

and made the decision to get a CI then nothing will stop ya but it take

being responsible ... it takes courage ... it takes guts to do it

Something you said intrigued me. Hey, remember I am single so

yeah this intrigued me. You said " if it took fighting

insurance companies or getting married then this is what was done to

get their

CI. " Whups, did I miss my boat?!?

(looking to see who had asked me while I was not paying

atention...serves me right for not having my CI turned on.) LOLOL

Hmmm I better quit while I am ahead?

If you lend someone 20 dollars and never see that person again, it was

probably worth it.
