  1. I have a hearing aid on my left ear and a cochlear on my right ear. Soon going get my second cochlear. And a lot time at my school. People thinks I have just hearing aid and they try to talk to me . But I don't hear because I can hear better on my cochlear side. And can't hear good on my hearing aid side. And they be like oh I'm sorry or ugh whatever. But it depend on what helps YOU. So this video really explained it. Thanks Chrissy 💗

  3. Thanks for sharing this information Chrissy! I didn't realize that receiving a cochlear implant would remove residual hearing – but it makes sense that it would. I learned something new today! ❤️

  5. Hello, thank you for your video. My son (3) has EVA, he wears hearing aids, and we are learning ASL. Recently he has had a drop in his hearing and the ENT recommended we see a CI specialist for an evaluation. Chrissy, I’ve been following you since we found out about our son. Could you give us the pros/cons of your decision to get the CI? Have you experienced any shaming or negativity from either hearing or Deaf communities since? Thank you.
