Beautifully written. Objective and personal at the same time. I am married to a stutterer, yet I learned an incredible amount from your post.
The vulnerability, passion, and humor in this piece is beautiful! Proud of you as always
Beautiful Joseph-and you taught me a thing or two.
I love this!!!
Just love. And admiration.
