I am a hearing mother who uses ASL with my Deaf daughter. We are considering an implant for her. I have read all the pro and cons and heard from people who lobe their implants, now I want to hear the other side. I want to hear why you took your implant off or why you were ex-planted. I especially want to hear from people who were implanted as children.

I understand that this will not be a two-sided, fair thread, but that is what I want.
