DeafDigest - 07 November 2019

DeafDigest Mid-Week edition - November 7, 2019 -- deaf worse or better than an illness A deaf woman was interviewed by a newspaper. She said said that her mother was more upset about the daughter's deafness than the cancer the mother was suffering!   -- a big issue with museums Many museums only have captions at their small movie theaters. But at exhibit windows, no captions - just scripts for deaf to read. But many of these scripts are so wordy and overwhelming that it is hard to keep up with! This is what a museum administrator said. Interpreters? Yes, but not that easy to find and to get and to pay low rates.   -- a Deaf Hoax There was a story that a deaf player for a British rugby team was hired to coach a hearing Portugal national rugby team. It was a hoax that the deaf player and the national Portugal rugby team did not appreciate. How did that hoax come up in the first place? No one knows!     Deaf jobs - latest update http://deafdigest.com/category/jobs/ 11/03/19 Blue and Gold editions & sub options at: http://deafdigest.com/newsletters/
