Wonderful! This inspires me to go back to college to get my M.D as I planned many years ago. I just may now that I've read this. I was worried if I'd be accepted to a medical school since I am Deaf but since she got in I'm sure I could too. Just need to get the undergrad work out of the way...

agreed... I'm all for modern eugenics and sterilization. I did my part-tied my tubes at 28. I do not wish to have kids and am proud to be part of the "child Free By Choice " movement-you can google it. Adopt-don't breed is my motto. There should be standards in place for the "breeders"...

I'm sorry but I just pictured myself trying to measure the level of gas produced by these animals with a straight face in some sort of lab with the other PhDs and burst out laughing.... Aren't there more pressing issues to research such as the melting of artic ice-resulting in the release of...

I do not use craigslist at all to sell or buy. Last time I tried to buy a puppy ( it was a pit bull that I knew was being sold too young, I was going to rescue it ), the person called back but hung up on me because they could not understand my speech. If I need to talk to a stranger on the...

My husband had to speak for me when we went out to eat tonight. The waiter couldn't understand my speech, even after I repeated myself THREE times. I agree with you-life is great being Deaf. :) I got free soda once at a fast food place because the person at the register felt bad for me. Got...

Ha! I get that as well as " you're very intelligent ". :hmm: How offensive. It's offensive because the doctor is basing my intelligence on how well I speak as if that has anything to do with it. Sure I have a Deaf accent but years of speech therapy has programmed me to speak quite proper. I've...

I was bullied pretty badly in school as the only Deaf student in the middle school I went to ( was transferred in the 7th grade the bullying was so bad ), as well as the high school I went to. I attempted suicide, of course the real issue was never addressed. As a result of being bullied to that...

I have the starkey series 9 and I hate them with a passion. I HAD resound but my dog chewed them up. I had those HAs for many, many years. I cannot hear as well with starkey, if anything my hearing seems worse with starkey. I cannot use setting 1 that blocks out background noise-or directs the...

Rockin I had the same reaction. C.I's sure are expensive... my god.

:) I'm a Lady Gaga fan too :)

I encountered a very evil shadow person several years ago that attacked me, astrally. I've seen this thing twice after the intial experience. It did not have a face and when it turned side ways it looked invisible. The face shape was square and the best way I can describe how it physically...

I have... my husbands former boss had a pitbull and he had this done to the poor thing. I considered it to be psychologically driven on the bosses part because he was a egomanic that would fume if anyone said his "salmon" colored dress shirt looked "pink". The man, who had to be THE MAN at all...

this is just disgusting. :iobarf:

Well she is from a place called Nutley... :)

:eek3: :shock::eek3:That just creeped me out. I am TERRIFIED of clowns... that reminds me of the movie "IT". Do you have a link to the lady in white story? I'd love to read it!

I've done the same. :giggle:

Ditto. :)

Hopeful I can get out of the place I'm working. I'm feeling really tired and somewhat depressed opposite my last post of being content. I'm just not happy anymore there, never have been but it pays the bills for now. I've been looking for another job for the last couple of months but started...

Hearing guy wants to boff Deaf woman... :vomits: I've met my share of hearing men who've appeared to have this very thing. It's sickening. It may be legit but what self respecting Deaf woman would reply to such a job offer? Not me.

I've heard that before. :laugh2::wave: it isn't long before I show them the door.:eek3:
