un-tye-me :: Welcome :: contact is Crissy Hadler

Hi I'm Crissy Hadler

Welcome to my web site, I'm Crissy Hadler and I'm hearing impaired. I feel my new concept will aid awareness for ...

"The Un-seen Silent Disability" I want to raise awareness of the difficulties, restrictions and the discriminations, people like myself are living with every single day.

You may or may not know that a butterfly has no ears and for this reason is the international symbol for the hearing impaired. My designs of the butterfly wrapped in ribbons also symbolises the restrictions and difficulties that the hearing impaired live with on a day to day basis.

My concept, I feel will help build awareness among the unimpaired public and enable people to become more "hearing impaired" friendly.

I am currently seeking sponsorship for un-tye-me From all companies near and far. With the help of sponsorship we can make the un-tye-me trademark a recognised symbol for the hearing impaired.

Please take the time to realise the plight many "hearing impaired" people like myself are faced with on a daily basis, making the quality of life less than satisfactory. We are often faced with restrictions, discriminations and are just treated unfairly.

I hope that you will seriously consider sponsoring me. My recent launch of the trademark un-tye-me met with people interested in buying a product displaying the un-tye-me trademark, so all I need now is YOU!

I am a little curious if you are trying to sell this to us? The designs do seem a bit negative in the portrayal of deafness.

I don't really feel chained or broken. :hmm:
 
Crissy, if you want to be accepted by the deaf/Deaf community, you need to learn about its culture. Your writing contains some ideas very offensive to the deaf community. Don't consider us telling you this rejection. I hope that you'll stay at AD and learn more.

hi again :) Chrissy, I did not see your website before, my bad...
but I do not feel impaired. I do not have a "plight". I am already "un-tyed".

ha. true. i should have said, just become a late deafened very recently and have not been exposed with the deaf community forum yet? how does it sound to you?
 
How's this for a response: Dying is a tragedy. Losing your hearing is an adjustment.

Do you think that'll work for the funeral face I get when I tell someone?

Losing hearing is not a plight.

Losing sight is not a plight.

Being told I only have 24 hours to live and not being able to say goodbye to each family member is definitely a plight.

You have a beautiful website & I encourage you to enhance your website with healthy vocabulary that doesn't downplay disability as a plight.
 
welcome to ad!

definitely listen to everyone on here because they are so helpful... I am an asl student and i have a blog about asl/Deaf culture. and it was a little offensive too and everyone let me know, which was embarrassing but i fixed it and everyone accepts me! hope to see you all over this site and i will follow your site hoping we can learn more about Deaf culture together!

when you mentioned you were a late deafened and didn't like using the term is hearing impaired because you ve been around too long. I added some words in saying " just bcome a late deafened very recently". According to someone used Hearing impaired that have not been around or associate with the Deaf community. i guess i dont make sense with words about the hearing impaired. eh.
