I decided to try the VRS service using the free webcam I received. During my first phone call with VRS, the video interpreter misunderstood the answering machine recording as "You have reached Royal Death Lair, please leave a message" and it took me by surprise! Royal Death Lair?! I double checked the phone number and it was the right number. I then asked the interpreter to redial and again she said "Royal Death Lair yadda yadda....". Say what? I hung up and tried again with the different interpreter. This time the interpreter said "You have reached Royce and Deb Li****, please leave a message." LOL!!!! I finally understood how that interpreter may have misinterpreted that recording. :) Did any one of you have similiar experiences using the VRS? P.S. I know I look like a crap....I have been sick on top of being stressed to the max with work and life. But I am feeling better now.

One of my childhood experiences as a deaf child. This is about my strange encounter with a gypsy-like woman at my hometown festival. The lady I never met touched my ears and declared that I'd regain my hearing in the future (huh? I have been deaf since birth?!) and the new world will open up.

Interesting observation brought up by my hearing neighbor. She wondered if since I am deaf, my other senses (vision, smell, touch, and taste) are much stronger and keener? I would say probably so!

Suggestions and ideas desired on how to approach new parents of deaf baby from the neutral standpoint with the goal of educating them to all the options available. Cochlear implantation is not the only answer and it may not work for every one.
