I know you would wonder why I write about DL is because of disability issues.  I have heard from others oversea and turned me fussing about it.   Okay, I been driving for ages and very good driver myself.  I learned in private drive school and faced the quizzes that made in drive lesson.  Now I am licensed driver.  Not meant I am deaf or disability period.

Disability means “Not able” to do something or “Not repair” on whatever like legs, arms, ears, or eyes….even body.   I got this Hearing Impaired but means “Not repair” That.

You might look over your DL to see if yours said mirror on both sides or hearing aide on it?  I not know if your does.  Mine does say in Texas when I was young.  Now it doesn’t say anymore on DL in Missouri.

Oh, maybe you heard or wonder if I would get the deaf identity on DL.  My answer is NO because of thief issues.  I can understand about police need to know if person is deaf or handicapped.    It is something to make easy for everyone to know whoever you are disability or not.  I have faced with police who not aware about my deafness and had hard time to deal with them.  I have learned from school about police warns and signals.  I know what I am doing with them but police had NO patience alike other you saw on TV or news.

Let’s hold this fuss details to next write.  I have many thing to say in one subject.

I am not going to preach you about rejected but saw the preacher yesterday.  It come back to me when I was little kid and rejected by others.  Okay, for example teacher told kid to be lead of group A and B.  One kid chose who him/her favorite and left other out at last call.  It is rejected by favorite.

It is not easy to believe that but true, remember when kid always selfish and prefer own friends than others.  Others can be friends in the future, who knows.  Own friends can be not friends in the future.   I seen that in my years on moving states to states.  I always think I am just stranger but friends in different states.  Not always contact much.  I had friends in group but not leading the group.  I can be first kid and last kid depend on my friends’ prefer.

You got that when you were kid?  I not know if you are leader or not but remember what you done with your best friend.  You rejected by others and not care about that person?  What if?

I know I am not parent or had kids of my own.  I am speak for others.  Okay, I stand and listen to all parents chat about signing for babies when young can not speak normal, just baby talk.   Many times, I had seen and heard about hearing babies use the sign language to speak and they practice to use pronounced when beome older.   I also found out that deaf babies not allow to use sign language and why?   I really not know and wish have some research about it.  There must have a reason why and hearing babies has been signing but not deaf babies. 

Give word out now and stand for it…

ENT stands for Ear, Nose and Throat specialist.    One day, before I have noticed about being deaf and hopeful for.  Why I said that?   I had kind of earaches and wanted to see ENT about it.   First thing, I called and asked for appointment.   They learned that I am deaf and put me automatically to Cochlear Implant instead of check about my earaches.   Oh my!  They decide for me?  No.   They should nott.

What if deaf patient had bad aches in ears, throat or sinus allergies.  Will that help them with CI?   No.  They are patients and wanted to heal instead of suffering with pain or sick with sinus.    I not know how much about nose but just my ole sinus problem.  Hehe.   I just noticed odd about that because “what if” will happen?

I went to ENT for “CI” appointment but I asked the doctor about my earaches anyway.   His response was not wonderful answer after I asked.  I turmed to disgusting feel and it bothers me.  I would love go back to urgent care to get rx for it.  The UC do understand my problem about ear but he would prefer for me go to doctor that know about ears.   That was not good day for me and after my few visits with ENT and audioigist appointments.   I become upset and wanted to scream at them for disrespect me.   Finally,  I told him, “I not know that cause because of my sinus days or just my ears drains. And I need that rx after UC doctor suggest me to go ENT for that.”    He said, “take Tylenol.”   Nice.   Guess what my earaches stopped after his answer!  Wow, he must use magic.  Hehe.

What if deaf patient have serious problem and what will happen?

Now, I have homework about cochlear implants.

I was using my own voice and had bad habit of my signing to turned my voice off.   I grow up with total communication which is use the sign language and voice at same time.  I stopped use it when I live in Texas and forgetting how to use the voice more often.   I just realized I need them more often as speak with people like at work, restaurants or general greeting.  One day, I started to talk to one of my co workers and she asked me to not use the sign language while use the voice.  I was like okay, that is my habit of signing and speak at the same time.   I could speak without sign but sometimes, my accent does not make any sense so my signs help my speak better.   Some people think sign language is difficult to understand than use the voice.   I looked at myself and it doesn’t seem problem so would use without signs whenever it makes any sense.  If not, use the sign language to help my accents better.

There….

I just learned from one of my co-workers, that make me feel pisses.  I was email to her and supervisor about deaf and what they should be do for their ears.  Somehow, he think that all co-workers have to help with deaf  like disabled person.   I was explain that we, deaf need ears to lead to because we are deaf.  We use our eyes for our ears.  So my co-worker was questioned and never ask me til now that deaf is disabled as the supervisor speak.  I was so pissed off and almost could blew out at her for that word “disabled”.  I was puzzled after they helped me with applications processing and not recall that I am good enough aware about it.  Today, they heard me winning the applications and gave me thumbs up or clapping for me like I am handicapped or disabled person.  Sheesh!  I had explained that to her and pretty sure she will voice for me.   We, deaf are not handicapped or disabled because we are walking, running, driving, and physically movements.    If we are disabled that mean we can’t have any physically movements.    If we are handicapped then it will be more like sit in wheelchair.

When I was work with Healthcare company and had deaf co-worker.  She told me about this supervisor’s situation about deaf community is not good.  He kept looking over our heads and our work we done.  He did well with me for being get his attention about work duty.  My co-worker was not working for him for long time.
Now I am working for private service for Healthcare and my supervisor look over my head.  I not allow that happens again so I have to get his attention to see what I done with duty.  Okay, I was doing the application processing and keep going on.  He think I went to so much slow, my co-worker was checking with me to see if I did any slow.  The answer is no, just going on as fast I can.  All of my co-workers do same thing as I do.  Other reason is problem is hard to keep awake for processing because it take us look over screen again and again.   It seem slow to us.  My supervisor know it but want to look over my head.

In fact, I am shorter!

I had issues with those vehicles that fog light at night or dark.  They never understand the fog light should be off while driving on road.  The fog light is for fog days or raining days.   They should had use it for those days.  I wish I would give flashing on them to take it off but they not understand.   I had fog light on my car or truck, not use it unless fog or rain days.  Those vehicles fog light really bother me and rear mirror.  Dealer or drivers should know about it and drive smart.

When I was in some training with others about giving session.  I had 4 workers with me and discussing about how to give the lecture in session by power point slides.  We have view of slides and tells how or what to say in session training.  So I was asked to put myself involve with the session training.  I just throw in that how to speak in sign language with training.    In your mind, I work with hearing and no one is deaf.  They had no idea how to make this work so one of my co worker speak out that I would interpreting along with their lectures in session training.  I was thinking that I am Deaf Interpreter, not CDI?   I have not certified as deaf interpreter yet.    I can do that with my company offers if they approves that.   If all deaf find me unprofessional CDI then I have some issues with them.  Which is ouch!   If all deaf has understand that I had trained with my company and allow me to interpreting for them…..
