I'm glad to hear that the speech therapist can help with cognition issues, @jodeej. That is great. I'm a big believer in speech therapists. I had vocal cord surgery four years ago and the speech therapist has helped with both voice issues and swallowing issues! I wish your husband well.
How often will he be going for speech therapy? Will you report back on how he is doing? I would also be interested in the types of exercises used for cognition issues.
