HearPeers Heroes Mary Beth Posted April 16, 2018 HearPeers Heroes Report Share Posted April 16, 2018 Yay! @Carolmarie I am so happy for you! Rondos are terrific and I can not wait to hear what you think of the Rondo 2 when you get it! When is your surgery? Which CI center are you using? Feel free to tell us a bit about your hearing story if you wish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carolmarie Posted April 16, 2018 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2018 I was born and raised in buffalo NY i wore hearing aid on my right side from the age of four until five years ago nothing in left side back then it was one hearing aid per child so I never learn to hear out of that ear i lipread thru school and college when it was time to get a new hearing aid there was no more upgrade i googled and googled about all three implant and found med-el had the rondo and the best program for music lover i have to wear wrap around glasses because I lost the vision in my right eye a few years ago so rondo2 will be the best choice for me Mary Beth and Jewel 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HearPeers Heroes Mary Beth Posted April 16, 2018 HearPeers Heroes Report Share Posted April 16, 2018 Hi @Carolmarie Rondo (and the upcoming Rondo 2) give us the great opportunity to have nothing on our ear. I love my Rondo for that reason as well as how awesome it is in waterwear for ocean and pool use. Music has been so much fun again. At first music sounded off, but with time and active listening it improved. Now I enjoy music every day. I hope you enjoy music with your CI in time too.

Carolmarie Posted April 16, 2018 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2018 I am very excited and with my grandmother having all of the reader digest albums and she had me listen to them and ask what music and who playing even with hearing aid it was very important to her i played trumpet when I was little then change to guitar until I no longer could tune it Mary Beth 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
