Article about hearing loss & neuroblastoma patients

This article was published in Pediatrics - the Official Journal of the American Academy of Pediatrics: Hearing Loss, Quality of Life, and Academic Problems in Long-term Neuroblastoma Survivors

I thought it was interesting as we are already trying to help Max in every way we can with his schooling. Max's hearing loss is small. He can hear without his hearing aides, however, it is almost impossible for him to differentiate between sounds like B P T G D and the like without his aides on. He also has trouble with the TH and F sounds verbally, which they hit on. It's a bit lengthy, but if you're interested you can skim through it pretty quickly.
