Ineko,

That is good that you have such a good girl friend. I also commend you for going out and managing your needs independently. I will not using those over used words "your are amazing". I will say that I applaud you for getting out and doing things rather than sitting on your butt. Too often people take the easy way out by having people do for them and on behalf of them. They  are the ones who suffer in the end.

Hi All

I just want everyone to know. If you ever call me on my cell phone. I am not alone. I have my girlfriend she knows sign language. So when I have it on speaker she will be with me doing sign language. No she’s not A certified interpreter. No no but her mom and dad‘s death. They was born deaf. So she is skilled in sign language but she doesn’t have her interpreter license she’s not certified. Like for instants today when I was on the phone on Marion transfer Center getting on the route seven and waiting for the route seven I had the phone on Speaker and my girlfriend met me at Walgreens and rode with me downtown to get on the bus seven. And as I was waiting for the driver to come back my girlfriend was there with me so when I got a phone call I had it on speaker even while we was on the bus and why there was talking on the other and she was signing in my hand to me at the same time and she can sign as fast as a person can talk. If I was alone and you would call me on the phone I would never answer the phone. Not without my girlfriend. She’s going to stay with me until Saturday morning because she wants me to braid her hair. I’m going to take mine out tonight wash it. Braid hers in the morning and then when I’m done I will braid mine a few hours after. Yes we are both African-American.

Just wanted everyone to know for those who called me today and those who will call me later in the future. So if I don’t answer it’s because my girlfriend is not with me at the time for me to be on the phone. And she can sign as fast as a person can talk. And the last couple of meetings I wasn’t at the meeting because she wasn’t here because a family emergency.

Lots of love always always 
Ineko & Frisco
