 Mum and Dad noticed that I wasn't picking up noises or sounds on my right hand side and I went along to a specialist back then and it was diagnosed I was having a hearing loss. The hearing solutions that I tried didn't seem to help very much. It came a time where I just gave up as I got older and I just didn't use them. I couldn't pick up the sounds or the sounds I did pick up they were all muffled. So I gave up completely until I heard about the bone bridge. Music is pretty important to me it's something I've done right from the beginning of life really. It gives me a great deal of satisfaction, enjoyment. I love learning different instruments. My recent one is when the last five six years is the violin and that is one of the I'm told is one of the hardest ones to really try and grasp. It's something I wanted to do and I did it and I've been doing it now and I love it. I like playing with other people in different orchestras and things like that and that I find very satisfying. It is more enhanced I can you know see if I'm really out off pitch now whereas before I wasn't I wasn't quite hearing it. It's been exciting when I hear little things like I was sitting at the computer and my partner came along and he was eating banana. I could hear him eating this taking that bite and chewing and I said you're eating a banana. I said I'd like a bit of that please. I was surprised how how I got back into the workplace or just doing my normal things how how good it felt and how quickly I adapted to it. It was really really great. I work in an environment where there's a lot of people coming around you all the time wanting to know where certain places are. A lot of people have noticed how how quick I've been at responding to questions asked. It just makes it safer for me and for everybody else too if I pick up other noises like beds going by or something like that it really sort of helps I get out of the way. When you've got poor hearing and you've got environmental problems during the day like wind rain whatever and if you can't if you haven't got that stereo hearing you tend to not hear cars and a lot of things coming on your on the on your bad side to cross roads and to have cars coming on my right is it was a major a major problem for me and when I wore a hearing aid just a plain old hearing aid the wind the wind factor was just it whatever I tried never worked for me it was just hopeless absolutely hopeless or as soon as I got a bone breach well it's just magic absolutely magic it really was I it was one of the first things I commented on I can I can hear the cars coming on my right hand side and there's no wind I can't hear the wind I said it's brilliant so you know from then on I just I was so wrapped because that was one of my my major problems you know safety problems it just added a lot of a lot of confidence gave me made me feel good about you know what I was doing so it was great I loved it
