Glad things are going well. As for the video, I think we all have moments that we wish we could just lay down and throw a tantrum like a 2 year-old! Most of us refrain though. - Kelli

I wonder what made boarding that plane so important to her? I wish I knew the language and could understand what she is saying.

So you might clicker train and mouth sound train the pack now? I would imagine that they can be trained to do the same thing to two different sounds or commands? Similar to me training the dogs with a voice and a hand command.

I am glad to hear that you are already feeling benefits from the therapy. I would imagine it is tiring though. I know that mine is. I have started reading out loud to the dogs to try to improve my speech. I notice that my mouth, chin and neck get tired if I read several paragraphs at a time. Tonight I am experiencing some numbness in my bottom lip and chin. I know that most of those nerves have been cut twice now with the dissection and the free flap operation. I guess that is where the numbness comes from.
