This morning Evie is able to speak as usual again, she was writing this morning too with little problem. Everything came out "normally" rather than fragmented and cryptic. We did push her yesterday to begin talking or at least typing, and she made an effort, so we are proud of her. She is not in a good mood today however. She cried a lot this morning, as she feels embarrassed about her lack of speech, or rather, that she tried to communicate with others outside the family and it didn't come out "normal". She was saying "I'm a freak" several times and feeling quite sorry for herself until Jim put a stop to it. She is now out with Jim. Frankly, he dragged her out of the house to help him repairs around our place. I don't think she's happy however she hasn't much choice!
