Hi Dear, well my speech is about 90% ok after one year. I still have some sequels in some letters. For example, the hardest word for me is VIDRO, which means GLASS. vidro is in portugues, and i must say that when i speak english people barely notice anything. i can say DROWNING perfectly but VIDRO goes out a bit stuck.

Well, one year ago I was removing that bothering NG tube. I tought i won't survive but i'm here. 2012 was harder for me because i delt with all this cancer paranoid and in the same year i lost my father to lung cancer. So you imagine how hard it was...

But everyhting adjusts itself.

What about your speech?
