Hi there.  I live in Michigan and yes, we do use our hand to show where we live or where another town is.

It's a rather convenient map since it is always with you.  😂

I have an amazing husband of 25 years, 8 children, 2 granddaughters, a silly chiweenie, and a black cat.

My mom and brother are hard of hearing.  My mom has a cochlear.

Decades ago I took an SEE class.  The school system was offering it to families of students that were deaf or hearing impaired.  I say it that way, because that was the school systems mindset on the topic.

Hi Karenb, I see you learned SEE a long time ago... Do you know ASL? If you are new to it, I can help! If you know some basic conversation, then we can practice! Let me know if you'd like to video chat or something. 🙂

Hello,

I do know some ASL.  I know that some signs from SEE crossover.  And of course "baby sign" is it's own pidgen of both.

I am interested in learning more ASL signs along with the language itself.  

I would be to happy to chat with you.

      Introduction

      By James Earle Quant · Posted

      How'd y'all, my name is James, but generally I go by JE. I am a deaf / hard of hearing individual in New York State. I was raised in an oral school and home, it was hard but I learned. I didn't even know now ASL, or schools for the Deaf existed until I was in my 20's. I am a mechanic by profession and work in an industrial laundry. I have self-taught myself ASL, but don't get much chance to utilize or practice it. I am hoping that will all change here. I look forward to learning and growing here, if you know of any other deaf chat platforms please do share. God Bless you all!
