14-01-2010 10:05 I have ataxic dysarthria from a stroke in 3/2/08 and had Brain surgery to remove the culprit AVM in 2/26/09. The AVM Cerebellar stroke left me with speech, balance and walking disorders that I have worked hard, through therapy, to over come. I am working with UW PT and the UW speech and hearing clinic. Recovery is a full time job, but if you view other videos of me on UTube, you will see it is paying off. I use Toastmasters to keep me motivated about speaking better. I used to talk for a living so speaking well again is VERY important. The purpose of this speech was to deliver a 8-10 sales presentation that used COMPLEX mulit-sylabic words – like Long-term dis-a-bil-i-ty in-sur-ance. 10 syllables!! Whew! Getting there. (We use these Utube videos to help me practice my speech at the UW and also to track my progress with my threapist/insurance providers etc. UTube rocks!
