READER RESPONSE"As always, thank you for the newsletter. My mother appears to be making very slow process (not surprising as she is receiving no therapy) however, I have noticed her answers are consistently correct that is....yes is yes and no is no. Before there was a question as to what she meant. I do see slow progress. Keep the newsletters coming."

SPEECH-PATHOLOGISTS : Are you curious about private practice?HUMOR: The Lord's ArmyA friend was in front of me coming out of church one day, and the preacher was standing at the door as he always is to shake hands. He grabbed my friend by the hand and pulled him aside. The Pastor said to him, "You need to join the Army of the Lord!" My friend replied, "I'm already in the Army of the Lord, Pastor." Pastor questioned, "How come I don't see you except at Christmas and Easter?" He whispered back, "I'm in the secret service."
