Thanks, Kristina :)

I was born deaf and was taught how to speak without any sing language. I didn't learn the basic sign language until my early 20's. I wore HA's growing up until my left ear couldn't decipher anything, except chaotic noise. I've worn a HA in my right ear mostly ever since. I don't hear much...

LOL. I do have a laptop. It has multiple functions that I need, like e-mail, IM's, photo albums, photo-editing, Microsoft Office Word, internet, finances, do research on various subjects, chat, and so on. This laptop I have is 4 years old and still going. I don't have a desktop computer...

Oh, fascinating! :D

Yeah, I am on medications and they help a lot. They don't prevent short spells, though. Of course, ASL won't cure it. Hehe. Nothing cures it, really. Therapy and meds are effective treatments that help manage it. I'm ok now. No worries.

I guess what I'm trying to say is it's possible I would have a better outcome if I had the support of the Deaf community. I guess, I'm not making any sense if you think I'm trying to bring you down. I would never bring anyone down with me. Ever.

I like the yoga, too. Wish I could balance on one leg, though. I have problems with balance.

I know happiness is a state of mind. Really, I'm happy most of the time. It's a catalyst, if you know what I mean. Of course, I would not want to bring any of you down. Of course, I will refrain from posting depressive ramblings. I've been under the care of psychiatrists for years...

:grouphug: Oh, Shel. I am sooo sorry about what happened. I understand how devastating this is to you. Your daughter will come back to you. No, I know it will never be the same again. But, hopefully, she will realize her mistake soon. I'm glad that you had your mom, dad, husband, and...

:(:sadwave: Since I was raised in the hearing world without any sign language, I had been disconnected from the world of the Deaf culture for many years. I have gone through things that no one should ever go through when I was growing up. I'm not talking about the injustices of being...

:rofl2: That's so funny, Vampyrox! I never really cussed like that my whole life, though. But one time, I was waking up from anesthesia from my knee surgery in the summer of 2000, my tongue was so loose like that. I didn't realize that I was cussing in every sentence until my mom mentioned...

:rofl2: That is a funny one!

That's definitely true. Doctors are human beings, just like us.

Wow. That is awesome. Reminds me of a news clip about a road out in the country near Indianapolis, Indiana where objects were rolling uphill on the hill. It was weird. I need to see if I can find an article on that. I'm sure there is one, if it was on the evening news. Hehe. :type:

Wow, Doug. I thought it was unethical to have a friendship relationship with a doctor. I think I've screwed up somewhere with my memory. LOL. Me and my jello-brain. Hee hee. But I do know that it's not a good idea for docs to treat their own family members.

I saw the old series when I was young, with crappy captioning. It was a cool show. Yeah, seeing Diana eat the guinea pig was freaky the first time, but it was awesome. I flipped out when my hubby informed me that there will be a new series of "V" coming up. I was so excited. It's...

Oh, lol! :rofl2:

You're in Pennsylvania? Me too! :D

Aw, Sallylou! I have a Frenchie-Pug that could use a playmate. Budha is half French Bulldog and half Pug. I already have 3 cats along with our dog and I'm not sure if we could afford to give the dog a home with us.

Vibrating rings???? To wear on the finger?
