Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My husband has difficulty speaking, he knows what he wants to say but the words don t come out right. He has been told he has age related dementia. I can remember reading an article about people having this same problem and it seems to me there was some kind of therapy they could do to make it easier for them to speak.I would like any information you can give me so I can get some help for my husband. Thank you. big
