Hey!

Sorry for the late reply. But, my mom enrolled me in speech therapy as soon I became 4 years old. I was in that all the way up to Senior year of high school. It helped me A LOT and I am able to speak very well. I still do have problems pronouncing words with "J" and "Z", it's frustrating, but I try. I was not deaf at birth, but lost my hearing at 2 months due to steroids and medicine and I was also a premie. (2lbs 5oz) I had a lot to handle at that point of my life, but I made it.
