This is such an inspiring story that I feel would inspire many PWS and give them hope and confidence in overcoming stuttering. I had a question for the part where you said “never give up and good things will happen” like most things that you have practice a while then give it a break it is hard to get back to where you are. I was just wondering if stuttering was similar in this aspect? For example: you have done all therapy and are “fluently speaking” or not as much stuttering and for some reason you feel you have gotten to your goal so decide to stop testing yourself or challenging yourself with different therapy exercises. If someone were to do this would they have to start completely over or significantly previous therapy exercises because they took time off or would they come back like they didn’t skip a beat? I feel like continuous practice would be the best thing but I wanted to hear from someone with a little more experience.
