  I admire your strength and endurance with all you've had to deal with - you go girl!  Good luck with the speech therapist.  I've been seeing my therapist weekly since April and although it's A LOT of hard work, it's well worth it.  Although I don't often give myself credit with how far I've come speech wise since it's hard to measure yourself, many, many people (especially at work) have commented on how fabulous my speech has progressed in just a few short months.  Since you've given this cancer your all from the get-go, I know you'll do the same with therapy.  Let me know how you make out.  Keeping you in my thoughts and prayers, Nancy
