I am finally going back to school for good this time. After all the stops and starts I'm happy it's finally working. I've been out for 2 1/2 years and it seems all of the conditions are right this time. I made it through the first three days fine. My ankle wasn't too swollen or anything and I was going at night and I was only taking four classes. I'd still decided to take the ASL classes even though it made me nervous to take a language. I hoped I could keep up and wouldn't end up dropping out.
Before school started I went to the accessibility office and got approved for services. I chose to have the amplifier but they didn't have any so they assigned me a transcriber. Someone would come to class and take notes for me. I used them for the first two days of classes but I also used my hearing aids. By now I've gotten used to them. It's been over a year since I've gotten them so I've adjusted. They worked well in class and I was able to hear my teachers just fine. I don't know if I'll use the accessibility services.
