The Handicap Of Deafness Is

All I Can Say Is I've Been Reading The Lips Of Bleeped-out Words, Angry Baseball Players, And Stoned-out Rock Stars On Awards Shows For Years And It's Been Hilarious. Everyone Is Always Asking Me What The Bleeped-out Parts Are Saying.

There Is Nothing Better Than Being A Parent. It Is The Most Challenging Job One Could Ever Ask For. I Love Being A Mom And I Love Being A Friend To My Children As Well.

At Some Point We Have To Stop And Say, There's Marlee, Not, There's The Deaf Actress.

I've Always Wanted To Write A Book Relating My Experiences Growing Up As A Deaf Child In Chicago. Contrary To What People Might Think, It Wasn't All About Hearing Aids And Speech Classes Or Frustrations.

I'm A Proud Person Who Happens To Be Deaf. I Don't Want To Change It. I Don't Want To Wake Up And Suddenly Say, 'oh My God, I Can Hear.' That's Not My Dream. It's Not My Dream. I've Been Raised Deaf. I'm Used To The Way I Am. I Don't Want To Change It. Why Would I Ever Want To Change? Because I'm Used To This, I'm Happy.
