Depend on who raise her. She was raised by a hearing family and learn to read lip. I raised in a deaf family I never get read lip. All I understand "What" and "no"
And for TTY/TDD that's cave-man technology. They don't exist anymore.
My mom's family may have raised her but they did not teach her to read lips. The school for the deaf chose what and how my mom was taught to fit in to society. My grandpa just took her to the city to the school. No one in my mom's family was deaf or hard of hearing. Since she lost her hearing from illness it wasn't until the family doctor diagnosed her deafness anyone even knew.
Funny thing. She grew up going to a standard public school as a child and was in the normal classes and not in the special ed classes.
Like I mentioned before you should have sued if you didn't get the job because you were deaf.
