Have you got Primary Progressive Apraxia of Speech? Let's connect

I was diagnosed in Sept after 4 years of getting worse.
When I did traditional speech therapy it was frustrating. Didn’t hold my ground much less getting better. Now I speech therapist who specializes in neuro degenerative problems. She has done other things that help me. I know it will get worse over time. It is my brain not the right signals to my mouth. But if I can anything to help, I will do it.
Welcome. We all know this diagnosis feels.

Thank you for your response. Agree - the right speech therapist makes a difference! My first round with a speech therapist was okay, but now I see a speech pathologist who specializes with neurological problems. I can see the difference! I’ll keep up with speech therapy - I’m not a quitter!
