I was looking for a good ‘what is a CI’ video and came across a press release from last week that talks about Med-El’s new SoundScape listening practice. I don’t have my headphones with me at work today, but it looks like it would be useful and fun.
Welcome
I'm a 30-something year old girl originally from upstate NY and now living in central Virginia. My background is in mechanical engineering and I worked full time as an engineer for 8 years. In 2010 I quit my job and started a laser engraving business.
I lost my hearing at age 14 and have been using hearing aids since then. In April 2009 I received my first cochlear implant. That went really well so in December 2009 I got the second. The CIs are what prompted me to start writing publicly - but I try to cover other things as well.

Hah, I just did this. It’s actually fun. Not that I need practice, but I was curious at how hard they made it. The adult one isn’t hard with sentences, per se, but I can imagine it gets difficult with noise added in and different speeds. Very good for downtime practice, but I don’t know how often you’ll always hear 3-5 word sentences.
You find the coolest stuff!
