4 days to go........

I've got a million and one things to do before I leave for New York on Sunday.  I keep on trying to trick myself into thinking that this is just going to be like any other holiday.  I know its not going to be and corny as it sounds, this trip may change my life..............

I'm off to New York to try out an experimental new treatment for the stammer I have had since I was three years old.  I've had speech therapy all my life.  A lot of it has been very helpful.  It has taught me the coping skills to manage my disability on a day to day basis.  However sometimes I just wish it wouldn't have to be such a struggle every time I open my mouth to speak.  Hopefully this new treatment may ease that physical struggle to some degree.  But should I risk getting my hopes up?
