Chel, I'm so sorry you didn't get in this time, but your attitude is amazing and inspiring. Hopefully you will, and sooner than 3-5 yrs. I wonder if they would be available in Canada or another country? After seeing Michael Moore's film,"Sicko," yours is another example of the frustrations and unfair things about the U.S. healthcare system.

Shirley, you are very brave to stop by and tell us about your situation. I'm sending you and Chel the very best thoughts that you will both get access to this new technology ASAP. Hugs to both of you.:-)

Awww... that's horrible news. I'm so sorry Chel. I know how badly you wanted to be a part of the trial. I know how much your hearing has bothered you. Just know that we're all grieving along side of you. Hopefully the trials will go quickly and successfully so that you can get in on a full release of the technology!
Hang in there girl!

Chelpixie,

I found your blog accidentally while looking for people who have received the Envoy implants. I'm sorry you didn't qualify. As a person with hearing loss, I know you are disappointed but I love your attitude. I'm not as brave as you were. I've been thinking of contacting them to see if I would qualify for their study but I am also afraid. That's a lot of hardware to have in your head and what if the company goes under etc. On the other hand, I went to a workshop this past weekend and I had to struggle so hard with my hearing to do the group activities. I'm an old lady compared to you and hearing loss is pretty new to me. I've never cried about my loss before but this weekend I let some of my grief and frustration out. Anyway, Maybe you could share what you know about the Envoy implants with me. Did you say that you can't turn them off? Thanks for letting me talk to you out of nowhere.

Shirley
