Your presence makes each and every ordinary meeting pleasant and joyful. Thanks to you, with determination and joy, I enter the world of the deaf. Thank you for teaching sign language with a smile. It's nice to connect our worlds.

We found out Mr Miroslav was hospitalized. Ms. Mary of the ERC willingly went to the hospital with us to ease the barrier between the hearing and silent world. Mirka introduced us as a self-sacrificing and willing volunteer. Mirko was surprised, but calm. And although he said he’d think about who he was nominated to, he finally changed his mind and we didn’t get nominations from him.
Maria and Mirko, thank you for giving us a little more understanding of the barriers surrounding us.
