Living Modestly In A Suburban

Everybody's Got A Job To Do, And I Do Mine As Best I Can.

I Live My Life Like Everyone Else; Everyone Has Their Own Obstacles. Mine Is Deafness.

There Are Many Deaf People Who Couldn't Imagine Living In A Marriage Without Someone Who Doesn't Speak Their Language. For Me, I Believe That Hearing Or Deaf Is Fine As Long As Both Parties Are Willing To Communicate In Each Other's Language. But If There's No Communication, Then The Marriage, I Believe, Will Be Difficult If Not Doomed.

When I Was Young I Knew I Was Deaf. I Couldn't Accept It.

During A Visit To California, When A Friend Of My Grandmother's Told My Parents That I Must Be Deaf Because I Was Not Responding To Sounds, My Father Was Absolutely Convinced That I Was Simply Being Stubborn.
