    Korean Drama with deaf character

    Korean drama called The Devil has one character who is deaf and signs. Her daughter also signs- the daughter is the main character. I don't think the actress playing the deaf mother is deaf because she looks familiar to me, like I've seen her on another drama, but I could be wrong. There...

    Paying for hearing aids?

    My son-in-law, who is deaf in one ear because of his service in Iraq, says he would be interested in a hearing aid but they are too expensive, and the military won't pay for one for him because 'they issued earplugs in basic training." I suggested he go back to the VA with his father-in-law...

    I've been invited to go to the Open house at state school for the deaf

    My deaf friend asked me to go and I said yes. Now I'm getting cold feet. I don't think my signing skills are up to it, and I don't have any idea what happens at their open house.

    How did you learn, or how are you learning, ASL?

    30 years ago I took sign language classes at college. I took three or four altogether, in two states. I thought before it was two classes, but I just remembered I took a couple others offered at the library: a beginning course at the library in Arizona when I was a teen. I think it was ASL...

    One HOH man's answer here: Which school should the deaf children attend to? (Voice and Sign Language included) - YouTube I really love his vlogs. For some reason his signing is clearer to me than some others- possibly because he signs at a slower, more measured pace and I can almost keep up?

    Two Mormon/LDS missionaries in our area claim to be fluent in ASL. They are teaching a class for free on Sunday afternoons, but we can't go then. On a whim I called them and asked if they would like to come to my house once a week for supper, and after dinner they can tutor us in sign...

    Sympathy to the Ballweg family

    This month Darrell Ballwegg was shot and killed in front of his wife. He and his wife are deaf. They have apparently helped a lot of people, and one of the people they were trying to help lost his temper in an argument and shot Darrell. http://deafevangelism.com/did-you-know/%post%/#respond...
