🇪🇸 "Al comienzo no comprendí la noticia de la pérdida auditiva, porque piensas que de todas formas en cualquier momento la podrás recuperar. Sólo con el paso de los días, semanas y meses que comencé a vivir la sordera logré entender lo que había perdido y el profundo impacto que tendría en mi vida.
El Implante, una solución casi mágica, lo vas valorando con el tiempo, con el tiempo comprendí y sentí que el implante cada día es una solución más poderosa, pero a la vez también decidí empoderarme de mi situación y de mi condición y porque he visto como me ha devuelto la capacidad de vivir sin limitaciones, pero sin duda que eso viene en gran medida de cada uno de quienes nos hemos implantados."
🇬🇧 "At first, I didn’t fully grasp the news of my hearing loss because I thought that, maybe it will just come back. It was only as the days, weeks, and months passed, and I began to live with deafness, that I truly understood what I had lost and the profound impact it would have on my life.
The cochlear implant, an almost magical solution, is something I come to value over time. With time, I understood and felt that the implant become a more powerful solution with each passing day. But at the same time, I also realized that I had to take ownership of my situation and my condition because I’ve seen how it has given me back the ability to live without limitations. I think that's something every one of us with cochlear implants have to do in order to make the most of this technology."
