Thanks Shel,,, but you don't recover from Hep C.. IT is deadly. 
the question is, what can I accomplish with the time I gots left? Throughout my life, I have made a few little splashes and the ripples have grown into bigger things,,, Like I once started a homeless ministry out of nothing,, and I fought to get minimum wage raised in Oregon,, and it worked.. but I have only started to make the ripple to protect Deaf rights. I just feel like God has put it into my heart to actually plant some seeds. I may not see them grow up,, but dang,,, It has to start somewhere,,, United we stand,, But you have to unite,, and then stand,, and know what you are trying to change,, .. And there are ways to do it.
REMEMBER THE DEAF PRESIDENT NOW MOVEMENT! Someone has to get pissed off enough and put their voice out there long enough and smart enough,, with enough backing,,, and they can't ignore it forever. The Deaf community, with their families and friends that are hearing, are a big voting block.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
