"I was scared of losing my career"
Leti started to lose her hearing in her teenage years, but she didn’t notice. It wasn’t until she was 22 years old that she recognised her hearing loss.
I was devastated.
In Leti’s eyes, hearing was crucial for her learning and career progression. She was scared of losing her career because of her hearing loss.
A cochlear implant was her only option to hear again, so she was not worried about the surgery or adaption as she knew it was the best option for her case.
It is my miracle. I love everything about my cochlear implants.
Leti says her cochlear implants have improved her life in all the ways you can imagine. She was able to learn a second language and went back to university. She is currently studying for her PhD in ecology and is passionate about her career and working with wildlife.
Your hearing won’t heal itself, but we can help.
