The biggest and most frustrating problem in my life has been my hearing which is severely impaired to the point of being almost totally deaf.

Private & VA Audiologists have all told me that I would have to go To Los Angeles or San Francisco to see a specialist doing Cochlear Implants and my PC Doc has been no help in getting me a referral.

Finally, On my own and with a few Google searches and a article in the Hearing Loss Assoc. magazine I was able to find a specialist just 60 miles from where I live and am awaiting a call for my first appointment. I kid you not, I would gladly give my right foot to have my hearing back and hope I am a good candidate for the procedure.
 

Good luck with that Lon. I have a good friend (internet friend) who had it done and he's very happy with the procedure. Opened up a whole new world.

Lon - Please keep us posted. As you know there are a lot of us "geezers" on here with significant hearing loss.
 
Mary went to her doctor with her 10th pregnancy. Doc said, "Ya know Mary, you're getting too old for this; how come?"

She said that she thinks it's because she's hard of hearing. Doc wondered what THAT had to do with everything.

Mary said, Well, every time my husband and I get into bed, he says, "Ya wanna go to sleep or what?

And I say, "WHAT ?"
 
I don't blame you for being excited Lon, hope you're a good candidate and they work well for you. Please keep us updated!
