Guest guest Posted July 6, 2006 Report Share Posted July 6, 2006 Thank you to those who wrote back about CX26. I guess overall it matters very little what the prognosis is and only matters what actually happens and how we deal with it. Speaking of how we deal – my plan has been to use ASL and speech with my son. This was an important and difficult decision that we came to because our school is Oral and strongly discouraged signing. However, I did a lot of research and determined this was the right plan for our family. NOW, the ECI contact from our school district has told us that they use SEE (Signing Exact English) in our district and she would be able to come to our house and provide additional resources for SEE – but not ASL. I feel our hands are tied for the short term because we definitely want to be able to use the school's resources and if they only provide SEE then Donovan will need to know SEE. So I suppose we will have to do SEE and speech. Then after he is up and running with speaking, and reading, and using SEE we can send him to ASL camp or something. . . Anyways, I am rambling, but my real question is: does anyone have experience with SEE? Or SEE versus ASL? Thank you for your help, Emylie Mother of Kaiden – 6, Hearing and Donovan, 7mos, Moderate Hearing Loss Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
