I Asked my University for a Sign Language Interpreter (BSL) and I feel very brave [CC]

I hope you have enjoyed the video! Please let me know in the comments if you also feel nervous asking for accommodations.

Well done for asking and advocating for yourself 🙂

Well done Nelle - I always think “what’s the worst thing that could happen” and even that isn’t so bad. Good for you xx

Hi nelle❤I hope the exams went well,I am not well versed in a sign language interpreter,do they sign what the lecturer is saying & have you learnt enough BSL to get by? I do notice the more video's you make the more it becomes natural to sign at times,you have taken to the deaf community well,I also know what being on the autistic spectrum is like,I have never like family gatherings or being in big lines like say in the bank or supermarkets,my brain just wants me to get in and out! For the past couple of years I have been thinking about asking about a CI but I always put it off,I think of my age & I am taking it away from someone like yourself that hopefully get 50+ years of hearing something out of it & who know what medical advances there will be! CI are getting better every year! Until the government change the rules anyone over 18 will only get one implant! You have made yours work & a 2nd implant may make all the difference! It's like hearing aids most deaf people get offered 2! Well done for asking for help! I don't know what job you want to do when you pass your exams but hopefully BSL will help & open the door for more deaf friends! I wanted to ask whether the longer you have to wait to raise money for the 2nd implant will it affect the amount you hear going forward? The hearing aid must help stimulate auditory processing nerve! Enjoy your break from uni,you have worked hard for it 💖💖

Hola, vi tu canal de TH-cam hace un tiempo atrás, no sabía que estabas aprendiendo español, soy Hipoacúsico de La Paz, Bolivia, uso audífonos, y me encanta que hables de estos temas, te envío un salud hasta UK. Sey

[@nellefindlay]

Hola Sey, me alegre que te gusta mi canal. Me gusta mucho la cultura de Bolivia y este año escribí dos ensayos sobre Bolivia y mostré a mi familia la película También la lluvia hace una semana porque me gustaba mucho. Me gustaría mucho visitar a Bolivia algún día.
Nelle (se pronuncia mi nombre como Nel si te estas preguntando) :)

Hola Nelle! Espero te encuentres muy bien, espero que puedas visitar mi país en algún momento no muy lejano, con gusto te llevaría a un tour por estos lugares, lamentablemente acá el cine no tiene subtítulos, con pocas excepciones, y eso hace que no disfrute del cine local ni de otros países porque "a nadie le gusta leer", es un poco frustrante, pero ahora que me haces saber de "También la lluvia" me puse a investigar que es una película rodada acá en Bolivia, ¡Qué gusto saber de que escribiste dos ensayos sobre mi país!
Por cierto, muchas gracias por preocuparte de la pronunciación, como los Hipoacúsicos tenemos dificultades para escuchar las pronunciaciones en inglés, siento que no muchos podemos comunicarnos con los angloparlantes por esto y otros factores, espero seguir en contacto contigo.
Sey :)
