Er, I wasn't attempting to imply that at all. *I* didn't even understand what the person was asking for. Even if I'm not going to participate in threads sometimes I still like to understand what they're about (I still might read them). I get where you're coming from though, and I am sorry. As...

Yeah, well, that's just how I am. ... I just now realized my user name has a typo on it. lol wow.

I don't know, but sometimes people only want replies from other deafies. And yeah, you're right about some doctors not wanting to deal with deaf patients. :( I thought the question was asking about deaf peoples struggles in the medical community (doctors appointments, hospital jobs, etc), and I...

I've always wondered about this. I guess people can find places IRL to hang out, but I just thought with how common webcams are nowadays, how strange it is that I haven't found any deaf hang outs. I know there's a tinychat room but every time I pop in it's empty. I thought stickam would have...

You think way too much of yourself:giggle: I wasn't following you (or bothering you); I'm just branching out and seeing what other kind of topics are on this board, and I saw this one and wanted to comment. :P ETA: Oops forgot to add this part. And I didn't say "some people can't find a...

Sounds interesting, pharmacist school. You must be on your feet a lot? Do you know of deaf social events in your area already? Since you said you had Deaf and 'terp friends. That would be cool. Good enviroment to learn. I'm not deaf, but if you ever want to practice or just chat hit me up ;)

I'm not deaf so I can't really answer, but I don't really understand the question, either. Do you mean, communicating with doctors, nurses, getting your point across, etc?

She didn't know. There's no need to jump all over her, even though I know a lot of you winced and were irritated by it. This should be one of the standard "oh and just so you know, we don't do that around here," no harm no foul sort of replies IMO... Keep in mind I'm not taking anyone's...
