My mother had such an implant and I was worried about it. Batteries are usually not consistent in their life span, and she was lucky that her weak one was replaced before it completely gave out. It made her nervous and I don't think that it increased the years that she had left. Thanks for the article, Paul.
Thanks Paul for this. I've been aware of this technology for some time now but was not aware of this incident. Carol
