Guest guest Posted September 20, 2008 Report Share Posted September 20, 2008 is correct. Those of us who were seeking cochlear implantation back in the early days had to meet different criteria than those in place today. Profound deafness with no usable hearing with hearing aids was the criteria back then. ....muriel in fort worth tested October 1987, implanted December 1987. (Implant still working great, and I've been bilateral since this past April.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 20, 2008 Report Share Posted September 20, 2008 If you don't mind me asking Muriel, was there any particular reason why it was 21 years between the two implants? What was the most pleasant surprise about your most recent implant, compared to the first one? Ted F. > > is correct.
