"I first began experiencing minor hearing challenges around the age of 30. Over the years, however, my hearing continued to deteriorate and eventually affected both ears. By 2005, I had progressed to racing at the Le Mans 24 Hours for the first time. It was an incredible achievement, but my hearing was becoming an increasing challenge. In the car, surrounded by engine noise and track conditions, it was becoming harder and harder to hear what the team was telling me from the pits. 🏁 In 2025, I received a Marvel CI from Advanced Bionics, and it has been superb. It has improved my hearing in ways I never dreamt were possible. Working with Roger 3 and the waterproof kit has opened up even more possibilities. I have even been snorkeling – a completely new experience for me. Advanced Bionics has not only helped me hear better in everyday life; it has helped me continue doing what I love at the highest level. My Marvel CI has given me access to sound, clarity, and confidence I never thought possible." - John Hartshorne, Race Driver Find more stories from people with cochlear implants: https://www.advancedbionics.com/ #LifeWithABCIs #HearingLossWontStopMe #ABConnections #CochlearImplants Note: The views expressed in this post are those of the author.
