My mother wants to learn ASL!

My mother works in a local savings bank and she has had a deaf woman with an interpreter. Due to her experiences with this woman, my mother wants to learn ASL!

Wonderful!

Very cool!

After I lost my hearing 11 years ago, my family wanted to learn ASL but unfortunately, none of them made an effort to do so.

However, when I was in the hospital last year I found out that my sister knew fingerspelling (after she started fingerspelling into my hand). She learned it back in high school which was a complete surprise to me!

That is wonderful! Give her a lot of support cuz I am sure it will be a challenge for her to learn ASL.

Hi SJCSue, I think this is an answer to your prayers, having your mother learn ASL. God Bless

YES!

So, I will pray for you, and your mother, "I hope your mother will doing well that make you happy, you will have better
gift from God and Savior, Lord will cause you would have a best gift for you because your mother is
great for you! Now He is comfort with you, and your mother's hands. Amen!"

I hope for you will have a dream become true, if your mom became skilled in ASL.

God bless you!

You know what annoys me? The fact that they won't do it because of us who need them in the first place...

But hey, at least your mom is taking an effort... send me some of that good luck, lol!
