Happy National Week of Deaf People 🙌

I'm a hard-of-hearing woman with Autoimmune Inner Ear Disease (previously suspected Menieres). It causes progressive deafness and dizziness in both ears.

In 2020 I began the journey of learning Auslan. I can't tell you how much peace it brought me. I love it and the community so much. 

This year though, I lost my arm mobility to CRPS, my job as an Auslan tutor,  ability to sign, play music etc etc.

I'm not giving up though. In the past six months ive relearnt how to use a knife and fork, tie shoelaces, walk the block. So many wins

And one day, I'll be signing again, even if it takes a few years.

Support deaf creatives this week. Our journeys are all unique but make a beautiful web.

Some sign, some don't. Some use devices, others don't. It's as various as it needs to be.
