Weas- 2 Sides Of The Holidays - Now Attn Fidyl

[Guest guest]

Fidyl:

 

i have a question.

 

I saw your group on signing. I have been wanting to learn to do that bar far

better than the maybe half dizen signs I remember of maybe 2 dozen I once knew.

 

In that I do not know anyone who signs, I do not have a source to learn from. I

obviously have put many things in front of this or I would have found a

resource . I did order a vidio tape a couple of years ago, but again, other

things took precidence. My transition for one.

 

I first got interested in signing when I dated a girl who was deaf at about the

age of 18 ... a long time ago. We both were earning about signing as her

parents made her learn lipreading and did not allow what they felt to be a

'crutch'. In her case it must have worked. I went with her for about two weeks

before I knew she was deaf even though she was a counslor at a camp for the deaf

in Hunter NY. i surprised I recall the name of the town it's that long ago ..

40 years +/-. We were dancing and she changed partners with her girlfirnd.

Though we were next to each other on the dance floor, her back was to me when I

asked her a question. The girl I was dancing with said that I had to wait till

she could see me before asking. we both worked on learning some of the signs

the remainder of the summer.

 

Back to the question. I saw the 'South Florida' in the groups name. East

Coast?, Gulf Coast? Both?. Would you know if there is someone, or someplace in

the Boca or WPB area where I could try to learn at least enough to be helpful

when someone seems lost or in need of something?

 

Thanks very much for taking the time to read this. If you have any questions

that you need to know to feel more comfortable about giving me any information,

please feel free to ask. I also run a few groups on both MSN and , two on

cooking, on on clip art and the other 2 are on-line arms for two Rainbow groups

that meet locally. One, a GLBTP tat meets at the UU Fellowshop Hall in Boca the

other a women over 40 group that meets at the GLCC (Compass) in West Palm. I am

therefor very cautious as to how 'real' cyber people are.
