Hey everyone,
So tomorrow will be my first Thanksgiving since losing my hearing, and I am somewhat nervous about being totally left out and isolated from everything. It's going to be the first time I've seen some of my cousins and relatives since I went deaf, and I don't really know what to expect. I mean, I know how I've come to deal with it in social settings, but for some reason, I'm a little uptight about being the "new deaf girl" on Thanksgiving.
Any tips? How have you guys dealt with this?
