#KANSO COLLARS MANUAL#

Driving along it seemed as if the car windows were down with the vibrations I was hearing so on my return home I went to my doctor who sent me off to the ENT Specialist in Adelaide. In 1999 my wife and I went on a holiday to Cairns. He ordered X-rays that showed calcification to the middle ear bones that he said can be fixed at any time so when my right ear stopped hearing I blamed it on the calcification & thought I can get that fixed later. In the 1980’s I went to see an ENT Specialist about my right ear. Living in Broken Hill, I worked underground mining in a very noisy and humid environment that wasn’t always conducive to earplugs or earmuffs and so I was doing damage to my hearing. I am a 65-year-old man who lives in Broken Hill, 500km from Adelaide and 1200km from Sydney. My Journey is long, sometimes very rough but it is A Dream Coming true.

Please feel free to pass it on to anyone that may benefit. My hope is that my story may help others understand the process, what to expect and how they may be affected on their own cochlear implant journey.

Writing My Cochlear Implant Journey started as a documentation of what I went through in the process of being Implanted with the Cochlear device and fitted with the Cochlear speech processor.Īs I progressed I found that there is not any real instruction manual given before starting out so decided to try to add more information.
