I lost my hearing at age 40; bummer, I tend to look at my abilities, more than the limitations. I learned several languages before the hearing loss; and, I still use those languages in the respective environments. Some, don't know I am deaf, until I tell them. I read speech in Spanish or English. I learned ASL over 20 years ago, and used it daily. When my own hearing was lost in a hearing environment, I had no other choice; learn to read speech. I lived in Mexico a few years, and left once it became too violent for me. I do wish to return one day..... The M.S. symptoms can be depressing, they'll never end. Because I can still walk (Ha! with a limp), I strengthened my body so that I don't limp as much and I use herbs to alleviate the symptoms. I currently wish to learn another language, I don't know how I'll do it; I'll have to figure out something....
