HearPeers Heroes Mary Beth Posted November 7, 2019 HearPeers Heroes Report Share Posted November 7, 2019 @Lori Martin Your journey will be unique and I look forward to following it. Is your CI center a two processor center? Do you get 2 processors at activation so you have a back up? Which processors did you choose?

HearPeers Heroes Mary Beth Posted November 8, 2019 HearPeers Heroes Report Share Posted November 8, 2019 @Lori Martin Med-El USA has a Sonnet swap program in place currently. If no one opens your Sonnet processor, you can swap it for a Sonnet 2 processor when Med-El releases the Sonnet 2 (supposed to happen soon). I will post a link for you. Several members here were activated with Rondo 2 and have kept their Sonnet unopened so they can swap for a Sonnet 2. Exciting!
