Barb is the parent of a child with a moderate to severe hearing loss. Her son was diagnosed as post-lingually deaf and it is believed that his hearing loss was the result of intravenous antibiotics. She learned to cue after he was diagnosed as hearing impaired. Together with her husband Don, they live in rural Clifton, Virginia. Their son attends Fairfax County Public Schools where Cued Speech is supported by the Deaf/HOH program.
