Rebecca Malstrim, a talented gymnast and student at Towson University in Maryland who became deaf at the age of 15, shared how she uses American Sign Language (ASL) to communicate with her beloved dog Molly who is also deaf. Malstrim demonstrated one of the tricks that she taught to Molly through ASL.
