As happy as you can feel, the person who connect the implant knows that this is just the beggining of the journey. You see, an implant is not a miracolous device that replace a normal hearing. After being implanted you will need a lot of training and still, your hearing never will be normal. And those profound deaf kids that get the implant at 5, will never develop a normal language. But still is a major improvement.

​@@ja-nie-neerecords7021 Promise I'm not picking on you specifically, but you kind of beautifully demonstrated something really stupid about the way our society deals with crying, and I want to use it to illustrate the problem. I'm also going to reword what you said, to help people understand what I mean. "No need to scream. It's just a sign you are feeling extreme pain. It's not bad." Crying is almost entirely an involuntary action, like screaming or gasping. You can let yourself have a good cry, or even instigate one, when you need it. My go to media for a quick tear-trigger includes the graveyard scene in "Steel Magnolias," the ending of "The Legend of 1900," when the kids pop out of their beds near the end of "Hook" and most of the Season 5 of Buffy. But it's rarely something you choose to do, deliberately. And people do need to cry, it's part of processing our emotions, even good ones if they're overwhelming enough. Our society needs to stop defaulting to telling people not to cry. We also need to stop acting like attempts to sooth and comfort someone aren't successful unless we can stop them from crying. If we don't allow ourselves to "cry it out" we'll likely get no psychological benefit from the crying we did do, and that's a bit like sleeping without dreaming - a good way to literally drive you to insanity. I get the psychological instincts to try and stop someone from crying; it makes us uncomfortable and if our empathy means we don't want to see them in pain. But we really need to get more accepting of crying and expressions like it, for the better mental health of our whole society. Quick anecdote. When I gave birth to my son, during one of the worst contractions I was screaming. Not bloody murder, but I'm sure you could hear it in the hallway. And the friggin' nurse actually said to me, "Okay, let's try to quite down a little." If I hadn't been barely lucid from hours of agony, I would've just stopped, looked around the room incredulously and said, "Did she just fucking say that?" If there is one group of people, who should know that screaming during childbirth is involuntary, it's people who work at a birthing ward.

Never take your hearing for granted. My grandmother was born deaf and my dad and my 2 of my 3 aunts all lost their hearing in their 20s. I'm 26 now I've been slowly losing my hearing over the years. Sometimes simple conversations with a little background noise can be so stressful. I've nodded yes to people despite not being able to hear them for years now or knowing what they're saying. That being said as long as I'm familiar with someone's voice and can hone in on them, conversations are a lot easier. Hopefully my hearing loss remains stable but this is something I have to accept may happen to me one day well before I become an elder. I think the worst part is having the gift of hearing and losing it. Again - never take your blessings such as proper sight/hearing/taste for granted.

Margo Thatcher there were people before Greame Clark... originally invented by André Djourno and Charles Eyriès invented the original cochlear implant in 1957, then William House also invented a cochlear implant in 1961 in 1964, Blair Simmons and Robert J. White implanted a single-channel electrode in a patient's cochlea at Stanford University. NASA engineer Adam Kissiah started working in the mid-1970s on what could become the modern cochlear implant. Kissiah used his knowledge learned while working as an electronics instrumentation engineer at NASA. This work took place over 3 years, when Kissiah would spend his lunch breaks and evenings in Kennedy’s technical library, studying the impact of engineering principles on the inner ear. In 1977, NASA helped Kissiah obtain a patent for the cochlear implant; Kissiah later sold the patent rights The modern multi-channel cochlear implant was independently developed and commercialized by two separate teams-one led by Graeme Clark in Australia and another by Ingeborg Hochmair and her future husband, Erwin Hochmair in Austria, with the Hochmairs' device first implanted in a person in December 1977 and Clark's in August 1978.

Personally, I find the reactions very cute and it made me cry, but I hope I will never have to take part in this kind of decision... this is as serious as amputation or reanimation...

I am being referred for a cochlear implant evaluation. When the doc explained how much I was struggling, I asked about disability and getting assistance. He completely ignored that, because getting an implant REMOVES the disability. So, please don't feel that we are going to miss out on everything. Technology is always improving. Keep communicating your needs to your doctors, so that they can help you as much as possible. I'm pretty certain I'm going to say yes to the implant. My speech understanding is at 44% and I have severe tinnitus. I have to trust that the implant will help.

My son was born with one good ear and now he has lost his hearing on his good ear he is 10 it happened fast in 1 week doctor said it could be genetics

The little girl that’s so excited hearing the connect four noise is soooo cute and sweet 😭

I’ve had hearing aids ever since I was 2. Watching this made me tear up and smile. I’m 18 currently and I remember hearing the carrot story at 6:57. Hearing it again really brings back the memories of visiting the doctors office and having fun with my mom. Luckily I don’t need cochlear implants because I am only partially deaf, but if I take my hearing aids out I can only hear about 25% of what a normal person could hear. My audiologist told me if I hit my head hard enough, I could lose all of my hearing forever. Don’t take hearing for granted guys, it truly is a blessing. 🥺

@RavenBells

A lot of Deaf people feel that videos like these promote the idea that deafness or hearing loss is nothing more than a medical malady, something to be ashamed of, or at the very least something that should be treated or cured. This perspective goes against the everyday experiences of Deaf people. People who feel whole and complete, without hearing, who have a rich culture and community, with a vibrant history and a unique language native to their culture. It's not that they think you should be deaf or stay deaf. It's that often these kids were never given a choice or a chance. They were born a part of this rich, beautiful, supportive group, and often never have the opportunity to become a part of that before being whisked away into "the hearing world". A world in which many feel they never truly fit into right, but were never given any alternative.

Katherine Campagna By the time the children are old enough to “chose “ they have lost too much learning. A doctor of one of my deaf patients told the mother to keep her deaf child away from the deaf community.

This surgery is no different than correcting a cleft palate, spinal issues or eye issues. I am happy these children have the opportunity.

I got cochlear implants 3 years ago. It has changed my life so much I was born completely deaf in both ears in 2009. I remember hearing my voice for the first time! I still use sign language and I love teaching my younger cousins it

what's other medical challenges

I knew a young woman who had a cochlear implant. I was talking with her mother and she told me that some deaf people are against them, because they don;t think lack of hearing is a handicap, and that the rest of the world should accomodate them.

At the beginning when the lady said "you ready" that was so awkward, then she realized and turned around

Looking at these sweet children hearing for the first time brings tears to my eyes... they all deserve it so much...

People say you can’t breath when you smile. Which is wrong. But I’m glad I made you smile.

Micah Leone do you not understand how the NHS works? They don’t give it to us for free, we pay taxes so when we do need treatment we don’t have to pay on the spot we’ve already been paying through our taxes.

My wife and I got to experience the opposite of this (kind of) about 2 months ago. Due to some kind of infection that we didn't even know she had, she suddenly went completely deaf on one side. We've learned how much your brain uses both ears to paint the complete "picture of sound." Even with one good ear, there's a lot that you lose with one missing. A Cochlear implant will likely be in her future.

Man this is awesome got water in my eyes man for kids how special for them..

I sure take hearing for granted. Tough kids, tougher parents!

My oldest daughter got her first in high school and the other ear done after she was in her 20s. Ear Specialists of Omaha. Dr Thedinger is the best!!!

It really makes me feel so selfish all the senses I take for granted because I wasn't born with any impairments. But watching these children hearing for the first time like I have always have helps humble me to be thankful to God for blessing me so much. These videos are beautiful. Thanks for making them

It's really nice to see these kids getting something amazing from something so clever. I myself have been predominantly deaf for over 20 years. It's not nice guessing what people say or misheard conversations that make you look an idiot. Plus it's given me social anxiety. I had a major operation at 13, having mastoiditis that prolonged for a while and doctors misdiagnosed me for months. If we didn't move home I'd never of known what I had, thanks to that new doctor. I've literally had an operation last week, ossiculoplasty. Hopefully when the packing dissolves I might fianlly hear properly again and be just as happy as these kids😁😁😁

These kids have been deprived of something so important that we take for granted, i.e., the human voice, and especially the voice of loved ones. Yet, as a result, they are probably more sensitive and aware than most of us in many different ways.

I can only imagine what being able to hear for the first time means to the children and their parents. It opens up a whole new level of live.

I’ll never not cry in joy for these babies. Precious!

As someone who was born completely deaf in my left ear and had just 30% in my right ear, I know the struggle. I managed to get hearing aids when I was very young, around 7 years old and I was bullied heavily for wearing them. Now I’m all grown up and have much nicer hearing aids.

That's really heart touching when kids hear the voices for the first time. Their reaction tells everything. 🙌🏼 Life is so unfair man.

I have implants also..its amazing what you hear...I still can read lips & I always said I could read things I never should have heard...my co workers called me bionic...I always like to say "if a tree falls in the woods & there's no one there does it make a sound...trust me..it does..

Thank you for posting this. In my opinion, the ability to hear is the least recognised or appreciated af all our senses. My mother was, and my youngest brother is, profoundly deaf. They are the reason why I am an Audiologist (63 years)..The look of joy, wonder and delight on a person's face when they can hear the world around them is better than anything I can think of.

This is what makes our world beautiful.
