"Speaking is difficult for me. But my feelings are clear: I'm furious."
This from Gabby Giffords in today's NYTimes. It's been hard to watch the rehabbing of Giffords and this op-ed shows that while she still doesn't speak well, her mind is in top gear.
Me? I'm a talker. I can't imagine the frustration Ms. Giffords must feel when she has so much to say and such difficulty saying it. The good news -- if there is any good news in a situation like that -- is that social media has given her a massive platform to communicate without speaking. I wonder how well she types.
That's a serious question. Obviously there are different parts of the brain for different things. I hope she can type 100 wpm.
Worth a read here.
