Wow, 4 months has gone by and it’s May already!! My name is Angela, the chair person for this community. I’ve asked Kathleen to do the Email. So when newbies want to subscribe- Emails will be forwarding to her. Thank you Kathleen Godat. I want to keep you all, update to what’s been going on and to add several future Events. What amaze me most is that this Central Oregon has been working together slowly putting events of all kinds. I will do my best to keep up with Central Oregon.

May 5th, 2016, We went to DGM in Salem Capitol where all the Deaf Nation in 50 states gather up in a Rally at their Capitol. Imagine that, all in the same clock of 9am to 4pm. Deaf Grassroots Movements. It is a Rally where we aim to fight for the rights of the deaf and future generations, I am sure you all feel that much need for civil rights laws for the better.

It was an incredible experience. I am all for Communication access, Education and Employment. I don’t know if WE the Deaf in Oregon got any of those Legislators attention yet but one day SOON.

Mother’s Day quotes (May 8th)

“God gave me Mother”

In your womb, I was created strangely, your each drop of blood woven me strongly. I remember the days when you held my hand. I took my first step and you were not on land. I remember the days listening bed times stories.

When I imagined the HIGHESTQUEEN of FAIRIES, I imagined the days when I slept, embracing you tight. Your presence in my life made each morning Bright. I remember the days I said “I can’t do this”.

You made me remove IMPOSSIBLE from my list. I remember the days of your fidgety when I was ill. The injections I had when, the pain you feel, still. I remember hiding behind you to be saved from father’s wrath. Weeping in your lap and taking a typical breath. I remember the days you tasted my food, saying “delicious!”, While everyone else was yelling it “odious”. I was frail like thread when you your arms protected me. Your courage encircled, when the world dejected me. My scratch marks chop you down twice. My irrational fears make you cold like ice. Each moment of your affection dwell in me forever. Your innocent passions can fail me never. Supreme and Matchless LOVE resides in you, MOTHER.

That’s why God, In your Womb knit me together.
