overcoming Disability Barriers

some paths are just not meant to be followed, but there are other options, if you really want something, open your mindset and find alternative paths.
As a deaf person being told that deaf people can't achieve things..... I am an actor, speaker, coach and have my own business.

Isolation

9 years old and your in the school playground, theres a divide in the deaf and hearing communities, and your all alone?
neither want to know because you have a different hearing aid, being forced to stay with the deaf unit and your education suffers greatly because your not seen as an individual.
