I am just posting this here....
I was approached by someone in the store, asking me a question about something. Although the person mistook me for someone who works in the store (I am innocent shopper in the store premise). After I answered her question regarding the product, I was about to turn and walk away.
The lady stopped me and said that I speak really well for a deaf person, she then implied that I am not deaf. I swore up and down that I am definely deaf but do speak very well for a deaf person, I was raised in a household full of hearing family members but I also grew up signing in ASL, PSE and SEE! I am fully ASL as I am now living on my own with my broodings.
I was astonished to hear from the woman who don't EVEN know me telling me that I am not really deaf!!!
What's your intake on that one?????
