When I first decided I'd get a CI just over a month ago, I was told there was an 8 month waiting list. A couple weeks after that when I went to the ENT, he told me the list was a year long. I just went for my hearing test and they say the wait list is now 18 months. I live in B.C., Canada - they apparently don't have enough funding or something along those lines. what the deuce... I'm pissed off entirely! i need to get my family to learn ASL since i'm the only one who knows it and without any signing in the house it's going to be a looong one and a half years.
For those of you with C.I.'s, could you let me know whereabouts you're from (U.S., canada, Australia, UK, or other...) and how long it took you to get yours?? Are C.I.'s covered in the states? When my friend got one eleven years ago, her dad had to pay for it, but I guess it can be covered by insurance?
