trini Posted December 22, 2019 Share Posted December 22, 2019 Las Thursday night I was looking at the C B S news at 6.30 by Nora Odenell. At the end there is usually a feature news clip of some thing unusual by a Dr. La Pook. This one was about a young couple with a toddler who is deaf and was able to communicate only with her parents in American sign language. When the neighbours found out about her plight 10 people hired a sign language teacher to teach them sign language. Then the class increased by thirty and kept increasing. So she has an entire street to converse with. This happened in some New Jersey Suburb . This news has re enforced my faith in human beings after loosing it for a while .If there is a God it is reflected in the hearts of the residents of the neighbourhood. To those residents I say THANK YOU. GOD BLESS. MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL. 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TerryB Posted December 23, 2019 Share Posted December 23, 2019 A great story that deserves to be noted for sure. Sometimes we forget there are lots of good works done in our world every day by ordinary people just like us. Merry Christmas and Happy Hanukkah to all.

Robert G. Smits Posted December 23, 2019 Share Posted December 23, 2019 Great story trini. There was also a recent u-tube video of an infant hearing his mothers voice for the first time thanks to hearing aids, If the child is old enough to communicate by signing it is probably old enough for cochlear implant surgery (12 months). Without auditory input speech and languish skills cannot ever develop' normally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
