Guest guest Posted October 24, 2011 Report Share Posted October 24, 2011 Most of my family on the female side were born deaf or lost their hearing within the first 2 years of birth. My grandfather and one nephew are the only 2 males that I know of that were born deaf. On my grandmothers side many of her siblings were deaf from birth. I spent my entire life growing up with the Deaf population and have a very very special place in my heart for them. Being fluent in ASL Sign language I was able to help many who are Deaf with their needs with Doctors, Hospitals, Lawyers, at seminars and conventions. I was 37 years old when I got my State license to dispense hearing aids. What a joy it was to watch the expression on their faces when they put their hearing aid on for the first time. more later.
