I wanted to thank you for your blog. My 19 month old also has connexin 26 and moderate/severe hearing loss. It is so uplifting to see the amazing things your Sadie Rose has done. I only hope my Pellie can be so wonderful and happy when she's 3!! I would love to ask you a few questions about hearing aids if you wouldn't mind. kirbykurtz @ gmail dot com
