Gals,

I am in process to gather information in time for this upcoming Fall issue. If you have something to share please submit your story soon. Deadline is September 30th.

Deaf Awareness Week will occur during September 23 to 29, 2007. National Association of the Deaf (NAD) will host “Celebrate ASL!” in observance of World Federation of the Deaf (WFD) International Day of Sign Languages on Friday, September 28, 2007. Please visit CCOSD web site for more information about the events in the state of CT.

I hope you enjoyed reading a previous Herstory about Helen Keller though I would like to inform you that I had a chance to read one of her books, “The Optimism”. It was amazing about her writing because it gave me an opportunity to understand who she was and what she expressed in her thought. In fact, I supported wholeheartedly her book as her feelings and thoughts were really in parallel with ours in reality. She emphasized that we think positive and move on toward whatever we desire to achieve for our dreams.

Stay tuned….

Cassandra
