Thanks for sharing, Adam. To think only 400,000 people worldwide have benefited from this amazing surgery. I wonder how many more would benefit.

We need to figure out what we can do something special on our forum on that day.

For instance, we can post pics of our little buddies, share their nicknames if there is any, write some odes to them :)

The woman in the red shirt is Virgi Mills. She is the MED-EL Consumer Outreach Manager for the SouthEast Region of the USA and is a bilateral CI recipient. She does a lot of presentations at HLAA and CI support events. She is currently presenting in Florida. Who is your regional Consumer Outreach Manager?

Virgi is awesome, have had an opportunity to be a speaker at an event she was heading up here in town.

I haven't had the pleasure of meeting Virgi yet. The COM for my area is Jeanne Frederickson. We've been in touch by email but have not yet met face to face.

Anybody recognize a person in the collage?

Mary Beth is in the center.  I believe Adam is on the pic next to Marybeth. And, probably, Matt is on the upper row.

Happy CI day to everyone. Wish all of us to have some extra WOW moments today.

This is my Sonnet - very promising little guy. I love my CI!
