Yes I meant to type "hear"! I am headed to meet our newest patient who has been deaf since 18 months old. I know some basic fingerspelling (self taught - thanx to the book and website suggestions of others on AD) and a few phrases... Wish me luck. I'll let you all know how it goes...

Thank you, Gemma... Unfortunately - I am a hairy person (under all that cuteness :giggle:) My nephew gave me the name Chewie (obviously short for Chewbacca) after a trip to the swimming pool! My own step-father even said this summer to my mom while we were swimming in their pool, "I...

Ok... I've read enough... From a hearie - I am sorry that this took place and to be honest with me - it would piss me off too! Fork to the neck...probably! I have tried so hard to bring my kids up to treat everyone with dignity and respect...sad to say - I have many times set a poor...

OK - anyone that mentions "Johnny Cash" in a post is so freakin cool it is not even funny! I don;t care what color you wear. I thought I would go all black, but no A/C in the car and 106 degree days kinda suck the joy outta that

Hmmm...Frogs...slimy little boogers...ran over several with a riding lawn mower this weekend at my in-laws. My daughter was trying to catch them before I ran over them...kinda dangerous. FOR ALL YOU ANIMAL LOVERS - I WAS NOT TRYING TO KILL THEM - they were just there - the grass was high and...

Thank you all so much! This is so helpful and makes so much sense to me. Glad to have some new friends out there.

Thanks Ya'll... I will wear them with pride! I should probably learn more sign in case someone does assume I am deaf. I am sure my wife thinks I am part of the time! Actually, it is just male selective listening.

I love to wear t-shirts and I really like alot of the t-shirts with deaf humor from cafe' press and nohear.com Would it be offensive if a hearie like myself were to wear one of these shirts? Would it be different if I were a terp? I have a book mark that says "I'm not listening" and the...

I have always liked black clothing. I also like deep purples, but only have 2 shirts. Looking in my closet I have mostly black or navy blue t-shirts. Light blue jeans. I do have to wear some other colors - I work with hospice patients and I do not want to show up on their doorstep dressed...
