Welcome to Mastodon. I think you'll like the warm community here,and you'll in time find many kindred souls.

I see by your bio that you are highly accomplished, and happen to be deaf.

I had a brother who was deaf. He was one of 3 older brothers. He was away from home during school terms attending the school for deaf, which happened to be in another part of our state.

But in the summers he was home, and being 10 years his junior I wasn't yet in highschool. So we got to spend much of the summer fishing and going to the occasional movie.

He taught me some sign language, though the alphabet and just a few other symbols is all I remember. I miss those years of his tutoring me.
