7 Questions People Ask When They Find Out My Husband is Deaf

When it comes out that my husband is deaf, I'm usually the first person people have met with a deaf husband. Here are some of the most common questions/reactions and the answers: 1. Does that mean you know sign language? When I first got asked this question I was surprised. My husband is deaf, of course I know sign language! However, I have since realized that some hearing/deaf couples really can talk to each other, lip read or use a mix of ASL and speaking. In my case, yes I know sign language and yes I am fluent and it is the way I communicate with my huz. 2. How did you learn ASL? Some hearing wives are native signers with deaf siblings or parents and have grown up in the deaf community. I'm not. I took two high school classes and one semester in college and that's it. I was never super into it (I actually took it because it was easy), but when I met my husband I just fell in love with him and he taught me almost everything I know. Fortunately I picked it up pretty...

The Stranger Who Changed My Life

Today is last day ever that I won't be a mom. Tomorrow I will meet my little boy. My Pregnant Timeline I spent the first couple of months after I found out I was pregnant in shock. I felt that this was the right time but I had no idea how things were going to work out for us. I was working my tail off in NYC, I had very little support and I was depressed. I literally felt like an alien had invaded my body - a feeling that took me completely off guard and I never thought would be associated with my own pregnancy. I just didn't know how in the world I was going to care for this little person in our situation. I was so frustrated with my own lack of faith! Why couldn't I be like Mary? She simply said "Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it unto me according to thy word" and then went on to sing a song of joy and rejoicing. She did this with no idea what would happen to her at that point and she could have been killed when her family and Joseph found out...

Why Fayoz is Deaf

"I was so sick, the doctor finally put me on antibiotics," my friend told me. This was at a party Fayoz and I were attending back in our dating days. I interpreted this for Fayoz, fingerspelling the word "antibiotics." "What are antibiotics?" Fayoz asked me. "You know what antibiotics are," I replied. "No I don't." "Yes you do. A-n-t-i-b-i-o-t-i-c-s" "I don't know what they are," he insisted. "You...don't? Antibiotics are how you went deaf." There was a stunned pause, then: "How did I go deaf?" Antibiotics isn't really how Fayoz went deaf. It's just a part of a story that leads me to believe it was in God's plan for Fayoz to be deaf. Fayoz had been deaf for 24 years before knowing the reason he was deaf. Can you imagine that? His parents thought they had explained it to him, but with ASL being their 5th language, and before that their communication in ge...
