Tammy - great news. When I was in college, I tutored other students in math and statistics. Since I could do it pretty well, I was soon assigned students with physical handicaps. My blind students always felt that deafness was the worse handicap, as it impacted communication. Although we never discussed that being without speech would be like, I think they would consider it equally as hard! I am very glad that Kris will be getting his speech back - for both of you!
