Hello, My Name is Akiji, I am from Hawaii and I now live in Colorado. I was born deaf in my left ear from an defect, lost my hearing in my right from an acoustic neuroma that damaged the vestibular cochlear nerve. I didn't become totally deaf until after the surgery to remove the tumor. This was recent and I am now taking ASL classes.

I am also a T4 Paraplegic from a car accident and I play wheelchair tennis. I am glad that I found this site. Thank you
 
how do you play wheelchair tennis? nvm i youtubed it thats pretty cool. You ever try basketball?
 
I can hit a tennis ball, but basketball is beyond my talents. Many wheelchair basketball players are out there.
 
Welcome. Hopefully you will find some new friends here to chat with. Good Luck
 
Wecome Akiji. I like tennis, but am not very good at it. From Hawaii to Colorado is a drastic change. How do you like it?
