Hello!  I'm learning sign language to help me communicate more easily at home and with other hearing impaired people, including my sister and others I hope to meet in the future.  I have always been deaf in one ear, but am slowly losing my hearing in my hearing ear as well.  It is becoming increasingly more difficult for me to hear, even though I wear hearing aides.  I have beginning level skills, having learned from Dr. Bill Vicar's ASL University course (and from his free ASL learning site, Lifeprints.com).  I would like to pracice with other beginning level signers OR very patient higher-level signers.  I'm excited that this site offers an opportunity for me and others to learn from each other!

I later was diagnosed with ADHD and learned more about my brain, and that my brain has a really hard time holding words and messages

      I tried to connect to the event yesterday and even sent a message to the organizer and this site's administrator to find out how to do so.  I am still waiting for a response.  I was unable to access the event yesterday.  I'm guessing that it's no longer offered and should be removed from the calendar.
