[nfb-db] Deafblind Group Communication

[Haben Girma]

John, you mentioned somewhere that your wife is not your interpreter. I 
imagine that you do find yourself occasionally in large social groups. 
What do you do in these situations? Do you just sign to the people next 
to you? Does your wife really not interpret at all what the people 
across the table are signing? Of course if your wife were your 
interpreter she would not get a chance to participate in the 
conversation herself, but then how can you participate in the large 
group conversation if someone does not interpret for you? I'm curious 
specifically about informal groups of 4 to six friends.
