Don't get me wrong just relaying what I have heard, someone told me that vitamin A, can slow down vision loss. I haven't looked too much into it yet I also hear lutein as well. I'm no doctor, but I am curious and plan to look into it. Never a bad idea to ask a doctor or pharmacist may have...

Thats strange but I suppose I have heard of that areas like California and Florida I believe they're similar have a lot of different cultures, but no church. Thats strange tho, I would think that most people who go to school to be a pastor or for youth ministries would take a second language...

A lot of churches have ASL services for those who are deaf or hard of hearing, with mostly hearing members. Signing only, makes sense at a deaf church and I think is a good thing. Only two problems are some religious signs are hard to understand be you lately deafened or born deaf. Especially...

I try to help break the gap when necessary, but only when a person seems confused or asks for help. A friend of mine born deaf would rather write or figure it a way to tell the hearing person himself as would some others I know. However there are some people who prefer the help in which case I...

My apartment has steam heat actually not a bad idea really!

I guess the degree of blindness is questionable for many, legally blind or extremely limited vision. I know some people who are legally blind meaning they can't drive, but can see well enough to walk or bike around just fine. Profound deaf blind's yes, I think it is pretty rare, deaf with a...

Money can be bad I used to think money would make me happy. If only I had a little more my life would be great. I went to school for business now, working in office and finding out money can actually make you feel lonely. I'd rather be poor with someone I care about than be rich and be alone...

This is true, actually a group that I attend frequently has many deaf blinds, being from Minnesota as well.

Heck yes, they are growing big time in the twin cities I, live near one in fact I google searched it found this site! I was actually a member of this site before anyway, good call oh yeah and go Vikings!

I agree me being hearing how can I relate, but in the same sense wouldn't people who aren't in wheel chairs relate to those who are and the list goes on. So we do what have it so people who are similar in obvious ways only socialize with those of the same type. I believe no one can really...

Yeah Someone finally put it up ASL films, has like 4 movies out now. I went to see the movie Gerald not to long ago it was good. I believe two of the movies allow captions on two do not. Not a bad idea for those who are hoh or hearing these movies are completely silent.

hey What I don't understand is, I hang out with hearing and deaf people, I've only been learning ASL for 4 months today. However, honestly I can communicate just as well with hearing and Deaf people(not talking science or something just casual conversation). Maybe I'm just a fast learner, but...

Hey, good point being a learner of ASL myself I would say that a lot getting involved in still being a hearing person is being honest with people. As well as respecting the people you talk to their is a thread here about do's and do nots in deaf culture. All too often I see people breaking...

depends on the car but i live in the city so a Automatic makes more sense, however on a classic car or big truck a stick makes sense.

where I live, we live in snow for 4 to 5 months of the year we are in the single digits or below freezing quite often. In fact barely above 15 degrees is pretty warm here.

What about car and a rusty one? AKA a piece of junk car.

hey Thats unfornate money never buys happiness hopefully they will someday realize that.

hey Quite honestly this is interesting to, me because I have an apartment studio. For those who don't know studios are one room apartments no bedroom. Anyway, the apartments were advertised as having sound proofing cement walls. One day my nieghbor for a few days would knock hard due to...

I'm not deaf but I know some people who are deaf and hard of hearing. What I don't understand is why people talk to people who are hard of hearing in a basically yelling voice. I know a guy who is hard of hearing and people yell at him and his hearing aids only pick up current tones, when I...

Hey I asked a deaf person at my church if you are hearing and hoping to get a sign name from what I can tell you have to invest time and have good motives. In fact even tho my teacher as I mentioned has a sign name, not everyone that knows her knows her sign name. I could be wrong but this...
