East Central Ia, S. Waterloo | You just hit me to close to home. I have a BIL who had a stroke. He's had an almost complete recovery, except for terribly garbled speech. He was and is a very nice person but it makes me uncomfortable to be one on one with him. I'm not that much of a conversationalist and can't understand him, he'll write things down for me but then I feel kind of guilty for the inconvenience and awkwardness. I admit to avoiding him more than I should and that makes me feel guilty too. What I'm saying is, I'm looking for suggestions how to handle this from someone who's been on the other side of the fence? TIA
Oddly enough it's swear words he does best with now! |
