My Grandma won a TDD From Radio Station.

Cheri · 07-20-2004, 09:11 AM

My Grandma listens to Country Music on the radio every morning some certain radio station had annouced that they want people to write a letter to them and make a wish and if they like ur letter you win and will get ur wish.. well, My grandma wrote a letter to the Radio Station about us (^Angel^ and I) and how she wanted to be able to communcate with us through a TDD And that She is old and cannot afford 345.00/Less for a TDD. I can't remember every details she had said in her letter, but the radio station looked at her letter and end up in tears and My grandma won a TDD. She was sure surprised! and Happy that now she can be able to talk to us through the TDD.

Yes, My Grandma sure loves the TDD. It made her happier than ever!

She was confused how to do it at first when I said Grandma make sure u put (GA) as go ahead so I know u are done talking She would be like Opps! LOL!

My Grandma is the Greatest after all she is lonely after losing her husband years ago.. She wanted to talk to us through TDD Better than using the Relay service because she wanted to see us type.

He meant our Grandma that we have to teach her how to use the computer and if we do she might come in AD And see how Nasty twins we are! LOL! *Psst. you are in trouble more than I am*

Beside, I do not think Grandma would want a Computer...(Keep fingers Cross)

CatoCooper13 · 07-20-2004, 11:29 PM

Wow...it's great and heart warming to see that your grandmother is devoted to you and your sister -- and wanting to stay in touch via TDD, not via relay service...prefer direct contact!

I miss my grandparents. My grandmother (mum's) died of a stroke in '86 (I was only 15), Grandpa (mum's) died when I was 6 in 1976 (blood clot)...grandma (dad's) died in '89 when I was 18 (old age, she was 70 something) and grandpa (dad's) died years before I was born, didn't know him...he died in his early 30's and from cirrhosis (liver disease).

Liebling:-))) · 07-21-2004, 07:06 AM

wow, you have cool Granny

Congrulation!!!

I lost 4 Grandparents to heaven.

1. My favorite Grandma (my mother's mom) died of cancer aged 59 in 1979
2. My Grandpa (my father's dad) died of blood clot to block his heart aged 61 in 1979 (suddenly)
3. My Granny (Dad's mom) died of Ahzhiemer aged 77 in 1988.
4. My Garndpa died of old aged 99 in 2000.

This is life!

Brian · 07-22-2004, 02:10 AM

That's awesome that you two can get talk with your grandmother on the telephone without the relay operators' assistances.

For years, I've considered buying my 83-year-old material grandmother a basic Krown Research Inc [now known as Krown-TTY] TTY machine, but I thought it'd be too much for her to use one. I thought it'd be great use for her, since there is some other hearing impaired [deaf and hard-of-hearing] relatives in the family that use TTY machines.

Miss-Delectable · 07-22-2004, 06:57 AM

That's terrific your grandmother want to talk with you two directly!

I wish my grandmother is able to use TTD but no good as she's suffering from Dementia, and she is too old to learn how to handle new technology anyway.

You twins are more luckier than you'll ever know
