Feel better signing

I mentioned before that my hearing loss is inherited -  and I may become Deaf one day. I've decided to be proactive and begin to learn sign language now. Its the first time in a long time where I feel like I'm part of a conversation! Based on the fact that hearing aids aren't covered by insurance, and to buy one (note I said ONE) that has the good technology that comes close to hearing prior to hearing loss costs over $5000...well - I think signing is a more economic solution, too.  Just thought I'd share.
