Description:

My wife is deaf. She reads lips. This article helps those wanting to communicate with her do that successfully. My wife and I direct people to this web site if three criteria are met: 1.My wife must want to communicate with the individual. 2.We (or she) must feel confident that the person wants to communicate with her. 3.We believe the individual will not take offense if we ask him/her to help my wife, who is crippled when it comes to communication. The biblical admonition is that the strong (able) help the weak (less able). My wife needs the help of those of us that hear, in order to communicate successfully with us. Thank you for making the extra effort. My wife and I believe you are a person she would like to get to know better and we believe you are a person of character that will not be offended if we ask for your help. Thank you. If you know someone who reads lips, this article will help even though written from our point of view. It is only ten pages long.
