This video could word for word be about my son Ronnie. Well, if you substitute wheelchairs for legs! I have heard the same words from Ronnie and his wheelchair basketball teammates. While I believe schools for the Deaf can provide a good education and experience, I also believe that a full life will not be lived in the Deaf community. The Deaf community indeed has its role in the life of anyone who is Deaf, but the rest of the world doesn't stop and doesn't go away. True success, in my opinion, comes in being able to navigate both worlds.
