How rude or to gain a shock reaction from the person???

I was born deaf and grew up in Hamilton, Waikato. I am an independent person that nothing will stop me from doing anything. My roles are a Deaf historian/researcher, community support worker, advocator for people with disabilities including Deaf and gardener. My home is in Eureka, outside of Hamilton City and have a hearing partner with three large dogs. What a blissful life here! View all posts by Jemdeafhistory
