Never been on TV before. It was for our son who is hearing impaired. He is the one with red hearing aids and chocolate on his mouth.

The Castle program is affiliated with UNC, so they do get some public money. About $1million for 800+ children. The State also helps families with the first year of hearing aids.

For us Castle bills our insurance and we just pay the copay $60.

Implants are covered by health insurance and also medicaid.

NC is a state that really understands that it is cheaper to spend the money early instead of supporting these children when they are adults.

Nice story and great program. I wish there were more programs like Castle for other disablilties.

Hold on, getting it for you.

Got it, PM your email and I'll send it along.

BTW, if you have a copy of Safari go to the Window drop down and hit Activity.

Everything that loads from a web page will show up.

Look for the largest file size or the one that's growing.

That'll be your video.

Double click it and it will download.

Thanks for the help.

Cool video. I had seen people with those implants before, but I'm not one to pry so now I learned something as well!
