Overview
Our lives are but a tapestry woven with the threads of our experiences. In this memoir, Betty Caldwell Poole examines and reveals how two predominant threads, sign language and love of family are interwoven into the fabric of her life.As the oldest child of Deaf parents and sister of a Deaf brother, she shares how sign language influenced her home life, schooling, church life, relationships, and career as an interpreter. Additionally, she provides insight into the lives of her Deaf family members from childhood to adulthood, including details of their education and culture. The thread that entwines all other threads and lends color and enrichment to the fabric of her life is the love of her family. Poole reveals how the relationships with her core family, extended family, children, and grandchildren added texture and beauty to her very existence. Family is what defines, supports, and strengthens her. It is the thread that binds.As she shares and demonstrates the threads of her memories, Poole hopes that, perhaps, a thread ot two will be added to inspire and enhance the reader's own tapestry of life.
