A really important part of any deaf gathering is the communications among deaf people who are isolated from almost everyone else in their daily lives at work or school or at even at home. Click here to see some photos of deaf people enjoying being together–and talking together–at the DDP Women’s Day celebration.
In Cambodia, where we don’t have meteorological seasons (we have only two seasons: hot and wet and then hot and dry) and no sports seasons, it’s the fruits ripening that indicate what is the time of year. And now it’s time for jackfruit again. They’re suddenly appearing in the markets and in pop-up stalls along the streets.
Today DDP celebrated Women’s Day. This is one of the special days we mark each year because DDP is really committed to respecting and empowering deaf women. Click here for some photos from the morning activities.
Yesterday, going to our Sunday mass, my PassApp driver had his little daughter with him. She was about five and they seemed to have a really good relationship, chattering about things we passed as we drove along.
After about ten minutes of riding, the little girl seemed tired and stretched out on the seat behind her father. She was small enough to just fit into the seat comfortably.
