Pediatric Cochlear Implant | Sarah's Story

[@mynonameyt]

This never never never gets old for me. I thank God for ever person that put their but in a chair and studied, and then studied, and then studied some more in order to perfect their craft or find cures for people. I'm 65 years old with no real issues in my life, but I've been crying for about an hour now watching all these videos of people experiencing something for the first time that I take for granted everyday. My God bless all these researchers and doctors ...

I work with Sarah at Spirit Halloween now, she’s loving her life with her cochlear implants

[@muhammadabidi1524]

These stories are so deep they can melt anyone in tears :)

[@CharlesEBright]

Cochlear implants are a modern day miracle. I had surgery back in March of this year here in Cleveland and I'm doing quite well. I have over 90% speech recognition and I feel good. I was scared about surgery but I have a great team for support that calmed me. After the surgery I had very little pain and I was back on my feet within a few days. I'm able to use the phone and watch TV without any problems. Music is still a challenge and it's the only challenge I really have left. Cochlear implants aren't a cure for hearing restoration but it is pretty damn close.
