Jason
Fadness Memorial Site
 Hi, I知 Jennifer Fadness
and I知 the director of TogetherDeaf.com. I
started this Internet site to help the Deaf community stay connected.
In addition, there is an aggregated news section devoted to
articles related to deaf issues, a state-by-state Deaf Events
message board, general message board, Deaf Employment message board, and
live chat room.
(Me and my brother Jason in July 2005 at the Grand Canyon)
I知 a college student
majoring in American Sign Language.
My dream is to attend Gallaudet University in Washington, D. C. After I graduate, I知 planning to get my degree in Deaf
Education and work in the public school system with deaf students. I
can relate to the Deaf because when I was born, 8-hours after birth,
I had a stroke. The
doctors told my parents if I survived, I would probably be blind, deaf,
and non-ambulatory.
Fortunately, I proved them wrong. But
as a result of the stroke, I have mild Cerebral Palsy that left me with
weakness on the left side of my body and some learning disabilities.
So like the Deaf, I understand how it feels to be labeled and
treated differently by society in general. However, like most of you,
I知 far more capable than most people give me credit for and able to
do most everything like a "normal" person.
I
can see and also hear. I have a passion for kids and think it is very
special to be able to meet a variety of children and
their families and to communicate with them through the use of American
Sign Language. In the past, I have
volunteered at Mantua Elementary in the Washington, D.C. area where
they have a program for children that are deaf and hard of hearing.
I worked with the pre-school age group. I
volunteered there for 3 years.
I loved working with the kids and it helped me keep up my skills in
Sign Language. I also
communicated and worked with the Deaf Teachers who worked at the school.
(Me, my father Jeff, brother Jason, and sister Sarah)
 I
have been blessed with a family that loves and supports me. It was
my grandparents, Bud & Audrey Fadness, that gave me this idea, and
my father, Jeff Fadness, that helped me create this Internet site.
This
project is a labor of love that gives me an opportunity to share the
blessings I have received with you. It is a gift from me to my friends
in the
Deaf community throughout the USA and around the world.
So please, use and enjoy TogetherDeaf.com. I look forward to
receiving any questions,
comments, or suggestions, you may have regarding this site.
Sincerely,
Jennifer
