HearPeers Heroes Ivana Marinac Posted February 2, 2016 HearPeers Heroes Report Share Posted February 2, 2016 Rondo is first of its kind - just as BB.We have to be patient but also be actively curious what's in the kitchen! One magic secret hint - predecessor of Rondo was invented by one Greek otosurgeon but time needed to pass by so technology could bring this little guy into the world.

Pretty dry one at that!! Ha-ha... Sorry - now I got it! First message I was typing on my mobile so I haven't really checked what I have wrote exactly... Then I read your message and I thought: - ok, I have found out what is quirky, peanut gallery and something what Adam mentioned (but I can not remember what) ... and I started to loose myself... Too many new words and terms for today - even Google was goofed by my question.... Wait...! I am going to set up a trap to - Siri! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HearPeers Heroes Ivana Marinac Posted February 3, 2016 HearPeers Heroes Report Share Posted February 3, 2016 Ivana, Do you know the Greek doctor's name? I have seen him at one congress in Vienna - I will try find his name. He actually got idea, but further development was exclusively Med-EL`s.

HearPeers Heroes Mary Beth Posted February 3, 2016 HearPeers Heroes Report Share Posted February 3, 2016 I started the book, No More Laughing At The Deaf Boy, last night. I found it on Amazon and it only cost $6 including shipping! When I opened it I was surprised to see that it is autographed! Since we have freezing rain and ice here today, the schools are closed. It will be a wonderful day of coffee and reading. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HearPeers Heroes Ivana Marinac Posted February 3, 2016 HearPeers Heroes Report Share Posted February 3, 2016 We are expecting change of weather but yes - enjoy reading MB! Well, I guess he wrote it solely because of educational purposes and that`s why Med-EL didn`t want to sell it for a serious money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NLackner Posted March 13, 2016 Report Share Posted March 13, 2016 Hi together. I also have got a Rondo. I got it in October 2014. Before I used a hearing aid but then I lost a lot of my hearing and I was not able to comunicate with the people anymore and so I decided me for the Rondo. Sure, it was not easy in the first time but now I love this new feeling to hear the people and the communication is now much more better than before. I also go skiing with the Rondo. I can wear al helmet and so it is no problem to race down the hills ! I am really happy that I risked this operation. Please excuse me, if there are mistakes in my posting. It is a long time ago when I used to write in English. Nadja Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ept5777 Posted March 30, 2016 Report Share Posted March 30, 2016 My name is Pat, my username is ept5777, I am on my second week (meet with my WMU people and two MedEl reps today) I do have the Rondo outside unit and and am very excited of my chance to hear again. My hearing has been leaving for over 20 years now and I was wearing wearing hearing aids in both ears for the last 23 years. I still wear one in my left hear and the Rondo on my right. Back to your question on this group is so quiet may a simple item. I have been trying to post a message for over 3 weeks on HearPeers to even introduce myself and as of today that has not worked. Before you think I am just another idiot please understand my insurance Co bailed out the day before surgery and all Rehab is on me and I do own a 10 Million plus company and deal with IT people daily so I am not sure why MedEl has made it so hard to become a customer or why I have had to send so many request to the Administrators begging for access to a product that is so wonderful for not only a 63 year old man like me for the young. Hope you do very well, I can tell you after two weeks I can tell you whats next and also your problems if it's not staying on your head etc. Pat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ept5777 Posted March 30, 2016 Report Share Posted March 30, 2016 P.S. MedEl is very impressed with my Dr. Colby's surgery on my right implant for how fast it healed and no scars Not Counting I still have a loud noise that works still in that ear. Sorry my wife of 45 years is not here to give me that important word.. Best of luck either way; Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
