Just an FYI I don't do credit cards anymore but LOML showed me that if I use my debit card and tell em it is a visa card it works just like a credit card so that is another option.

Me too, but I'm betting your thoughts on that fourth reason have changed.

And I had missed your earlier post about the initial positive results you're seeing (er...hearing) with the implant. That's great news! I'm a pretty firm believer in "what comes around goes around", and I suspect your excellent results are some type of cosmic payback for your good deeds.

I thought this was a pretty good overview of the technology they are using and explaining the music differences one with the implants one hears with them.

I can tell you from someone who was only deaf for 17 months that until you are deaf you probably won't appreciate what true loneliness is. Yesterday after only 6 weeks post activation and getting the 2nd mapping of my Ci I went to a busy restaurant with my wife. I listened, followed and conversed with her without constant request for repeated conversation. Last night I listened to a couple Beatles CDs and a Hugo Montenegro CD while online chatting with a bunch of deaf CI implantees.
Today when my MIL called Sharon told her "Mom...at dinner last night we had the best conversation we've had in a long time." The noisy environment is the most difficult situation in which to hear. I struggled a little but not much. It was an enjoyable evening.
Dr. Limb is an extremely talented, educated and respected surgeon and musician. And yet.....among CI implantees there are those who will argue that he's not completely correct with his discussion as to the quality of the sound and music CI implantees can enjoy. These same folks believe it's better right now than he recognizes and that all implants are not created equal just based on the basic methodology chosen by the companies to employ in the design of their internal implants.
I'll give you some advice.....protect your hearing.....Ken
