I thought she must be cold and uncaring. It never occurred to me that the doctors at the time might have insisted she avoid learning it. <BR/><BR/>Another lesson in non-judgement. Thanks Shari! <BR/><BR/>Happy Easter.Michelle O'Neilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03221354521123541601noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33891938.post-52081771711175192322008-03-22T12:07:00.000-05:002008-03-22T12:07:00.000-05:00Abbie-I totally understand what you mean about not...Abbie-I totally understand what you mean about not getting to your full potential without all the tools (sign language, FM systems, notetakers, etc) available to you. In high school, I struggled big time. It was an adjustment. <BR/><BR/>About the TV shows, I believe you are an hour ahead of me, so check your local listings for the exact time. It might be off an hour. I'm going to check in case Sharihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14743533586969447238noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33891938.post-82080622062019869712008-03-22T09:32:00.000-05:002008-03-22T09:32:00.000-05:00I can't wait to be watching these two shows!

I had nothing to fall back on when I was left hearing nothing for seven months.

I am glad that I was able to sign and talk. <BR/><BR/>Molly-I have to remember them myself. LOL. I don't know how busy I'm going to get and forget to watch them. <BR/><BR/>La La-Monk is somehow endearing.

He told me that he didn't know that the keyboard beeped before that. I have to go check and see if it really is a CI, but I think so.<BR/><BR/>The Monk episode you are talking about made me cry. And hope. When my husband Jim died his corneas were donated and we learned that each one was used and went to a different person.

We use SEE2 in our household while we talk. We are total communication because that is what Rebecca's school uses as well as our church. I want to learn ASL eventually, but we need a language and effective communication first. Have you read "Deaf Like Me"?
