Can You Hear Me Now?

Diane Rehm from NPR's
"The Diane Rehm Show"
Spasmodic Dysphonia (SD) is a chronic voice disorder.  People who have this disorder sometimes may sound "normal" and then other times have great difficulty speaking.  A person's voice may sound "tight", delayed and break up.  I first became aware of SD when Diane Rehm from NPR's, The Diane Rehm Show, was diagnosed.  Imagine being a radio talk show host and developing this speaking disorder!   I look forward to learning more about this condition during my blog project.
