Are you sure its your voice? I have a perfect voice and sometimes people
don't know what I'm talking about. Its just that some folks don't know how
to communicate.

I'm just curious here. What do blind people make of 'deaf' voice. I mean the
way some deaf people speak when they are born with a severe/profound hearing
loss and have to spend a lot of time being taught how to speak? I'm told I
have a really good voice but I wasn't born profoundly deaf and it can't be
that good because sometimes when I speak I find it hard to get people to
know what I am talking about.

Helene.
