Note: Narration is a bit soft, turn up a little.
After reading Loss for Words by Lou Ann Walker, I realized a little bit more about myself. It unlocked a few things allowing me to keep cultivating ”who I am“. I share this CODA vlog with you, perhaps to spark something within you. [...]
Interesting points were brought up in the last vlog, comparing whether Kodas are more keen to learning ASL or PSE. I am not at all versed in language or how it works. I give my opinions and perspectives based on my experiences. I am also throwing in another language process called [...]
After just returning last week from Koda Kamp, Randy is really excited to share this with you. He did a great job for his first one! The thing that touched me, with this vlog, it allowed me to see how much he really does appreciate being at a place with his peers. Sometimes teenagers don’t [...]

How my brother and I fought over the phone, we were around 10 to 12 years old. My brother and I had our own phones in our rooms. The kitchen was the [...]
Frequently asked questions. I’ve talked to many Codas, we all got the same questions.
It’s amazing that society, young and old still doesn’t have an awareness to Deafness. The video is 5 minutes and to type it all out was going to be too time consuming. So I took my first shot [...]
It’s important to point out that everyone should know about Coda. I’ll explain.
