When I was a little boy my mother couldn't figure out why I always sat so close to the TV. One day she dropped a phone book right next to me and the loud bang did not make me flinch. I was losing my hearing. Doctors figured out the problem and I never went deaf like Joanne Milne did. Through the miracle of cochlear implants, she has just heard sound for the first time.

These implants really are nothing short of a miracle. This video captures Joanne hearing for the first time after getting one...and you will be amazed.

She’s clearly overwhelmed, and you will be too at this amazing change in her life.
