It is the Cochlear wireless TV streamer.

The streamer allows for Chance to hear the television practically anywhere he may go in the house.
This allows him to go into the kitchen to get a snack without having to pause the television. He can put together puzzles like he loves to do with a notebook on the side for taking notes when he watches things like General Conference.

And he doesn't even have to look up to see the captions most of the time. He just hears it.
This is great for Chance!
It means we have to compete a bit more for Chance's attention, as we have to talk louder for him to hear us since he is so tuned into listening to the television. But this is a small price to pay for the benefits that Chance gains. He gets to listen and enjoy television like never before. He can walk around and leave the room all while still hearing the television!
Sometimes I wonder if he is hearing the television better than the rest of us hearing members of the family.
Cochlear implant technology is such a blessing for Chance and our family. We are definitely cochlear implant fans at our house.
