Hi folks first let me intruduce myself I am Male in my 70,s so not a young guy ,just want to comnunicate with other folks who like me have a cochlear ear plant. I have had mine approx 3 years and fine it great ,but now told I need another one for the other side lol. I am hoping to raise enough cash next year to hopefully get one as the Health service in Australia are a little behind the times with funding . Tess
