I find your story fascinating, Scott, as well as your speculations as to why the spurts of fluency occurred. I'm just curious...you said that after a little while following your anyeurysm your speech became worse. How long did it take following your second episode in the whirlpool? Was there a fleeting few minutes of fluency when the paramedics were asking you questions or did you remain fluent for some time after that? I'm tempted to say that perhaps you experienced these moments of fluency as a result of your mind being fully focused on your health for a moment, rather than on controlling your stutter?
