Been around for a while, but never formally introduced myself. So, here I am. What do you want to know other than, I love peanuts? Considered myself HOH most of my life but recently discovered I really am deaf (technically), however, it didn't change how I functioned hearing wise. I am still able to use the phone, still speak well, and am always improving on listening. I sign fluently too, in ASL, PSE, SE, Sim Com. From deaf family. Yes, mother, father deaf. Brothers, sister deaf. Some cousins deaf. Niece, nephew deaf. I don't do d/D. So, if I say deaf, it means deaf. I don't care about distinguishing the small d's from big d's. I am not politically correct, never will be or try not to be. What else? Ask and I'll try to answer.
