Video: How a Cochlear Implant Works

My son has a spiel he goes through when telling people about how his cochlear implant works. He's been doing this since he was three, and is very good at answering questions, too. Yes, I'm still hoping he'll post soon, but he's getting ahead on some classwork before his surgery next week.
