While in there, I saw a DHH woman walking down an aisle with a hearing son. It was apparent to me that she had a cochlear implant done in the past. We were surprised to see each other, because obviously we are both local. I didn’t [...]

I am so glad to be rid of that darn cold. I think I haven’t had a serious cold like that for 3 or 4 years. It was nasty.
