I am new to the whole deaf culture, and wanted to say hi to everyone. About a month ago my hearing was bad, but now it's gotten worse. I can no longer hear. My hearing loss started four years ago when I was diagnosed with cholesteotoma in both ears. Surgery was done over the following two years with some hearing still available. Then it took a turn for the worse last month and hasn't returned yet.
I am learning sign language at a local community college and learning a lot. My teacher is very good and patient knowing how hard it is for me to learn sign language without hearing. It's certainly not easy, but I will prevail.
I look forward to meeting new people and making new friends. If there are any people in my area learning sign language, hit me up.
