Synopsis

Emotional. Informative. Inspiring.


Julieann Wallace has shared her cochlear implant story after many requests for her to write her journey as a book. She has become an influencer in Meniere's groups with her triumph over Meniere's disease, and now her cochlear implant success.


'I'm filled with so much doubt. I am choosing to get a cochlear implant. Am I allowed to choose? Or should I just accept my fate that I will remain without hearing for the length of my days, auditory colour disappearing from my life. People keep telling me that a cochlear implant will change my life. Could it be true?'


This is Julieann's journey to hearing again with a cochlear implant. Her heart story. Her fears. Her anxieties. Her questioning. Her appointments. Her reactions. Her debilitating Meniere's Disease. Her success. Her hearing addiction.
