I find deaf culture quite interesting, so, figured I would pop in here and leave a few words, and hope to perhaps make some new connections with members of the community.

That's an admirable profession!

I used to work with developmentally delayed adults. I have a VERY basic ASL vocabulary....I LOVE the sign for socks!
