I'm hoping there is a bit of good news for my sister, Dara. On February 22nd, her voice started becoming strong again, but then it weakened for a while. It is back to fuller strength and she is more audible. She is working on vocal clarity and a stronger speaking voice and it is helping.
I called her yesterday around 3:00 p.m. her time and she asked if I could talk later because she was going to therapy? What? Did I hear that right? She was going to therapy?
Now, I tried to call her back yesterday and today and I have not reached her. I sent an email to her case manager to get an update, but then Dale, her boyfriend, called me to say that she is beginning therapy and that she is very encouraged by it. I believe it is physical therapy and not speech therapy. I'll find out tomorrow for sure. It has nearly been a year, but it is a new day if she begins this crucial step.
In the meantime, she is in isolation. Feel free to call her at 424-251-4724.
or send a card of encouragement to:
