Hi Johnny,

Welcome to the list!  I'm sorry to hear about your wife, Amy.  When my 
daughter was a baby, the doctors were trying to figure out why she was so 
sick and tested her for CF.  It was a frightening time for us and I can't 
imagine what you and Amy have been through.

I'm located in Portland, OR, but I do know a couple of poly people who are 
fluent in ASL.  He is deaf and his wife is fluent.  They are both long time 
poly people.  I can contact them to see if they are okay with my giving you 
their contact information.

Of course, for long distance, typing works pretty well for communication. 
;-)  However, it might be nice to connect with other ASL poly folks.

What would you like?
Alisa
