Hearing Loss with Zero Communication.

We found this posting very moving. Notice his face when he realizes that sign language is a form of communication.

    So, I am a little ashamed to say that I had just never thought about people who do not have access to learning all the things that we can so easily be bombarded with by the touch of an enter key! I know that education is not something that every one can access easily but this is a whole level deeper. Not only can he not communicate but he lives almost like an outcast because he needs to learn differently. Watching this makes me sad, but I am thankful for the teacher in this video who goes and teaches others. I hope and pray that the ones he is teaching, will go out and do the same for others! This is such a great message of hope!

      This video also touched me deeply as well. It was so heartening to see how he became enlivened with sign language. His life became opened!

    I so enjoyed this video as it represents the potential of such loss of connection with others and acceptance. As he was brought to communication, through the love of his teacher, he became new to others! Thank you for sharing this video Dale!
    Loved it!
