I started to learn it but since I am the last of my line to inherit this no one wants to learn it so am losing it.

it works we are trying to outgrow this and work on speaking

We have speech therapy working with us with signing and sounds

It helps a lot for me.. for it helps me better understand things around me.. im still not fluent but i will get there some day.

She knows a few signs and it helps with her speech

i worked hunting guide

Helped when he didn't have any language.

Yes, that's what I am always doing. It's my life. I learned to sign before I learned to talk a little bit.

I have always signed a little, because I used to talk to a little boy in church that was deaf. I was alway amazed by this language and since I became deaf, it has helped me so much, i absolutely love it.

this helped in the beginning when Brian was non-verbal

used makaton when he was younger and til he was about 10 as visual cues whilst speaking, good to get him looking and really taking in what i was saying. occassionally can still use it now in certain situations, if we are in a crowd and get separated, i can sign at him and that is very helpful knowing he can understand me.

works

use Sign-a-long and Makaton with some of the kids.

This works real well for times my son gets so frustrated he can't vovolize it so he sighns which helps a lot.

He will only sign what is important to Julian.
