Russ Newton - Researching Speech Options

By Russ Newton

So one of the first side effects of Bulbar onset ALS is the gradual loss of speaking ability. No one can tell me how long it will take, but I will lose my ability to speak sooner or later. So I am researching devices that allow me to record my voice now and speak later using technology. I have met with two vendors, and I really liked the second vendor. He suggested that I wait six weeks as a new device was coming out and he recommended that I try a free resource that would allow me to digitize my voice and would work with his device when it was time to buy it. I like him a lot, he is willing to wait for my purchase and offered me a option that is free that will help out in the long run. There are still good people in the world! Russ
