I was moved while reading your story. I learned a lot about the belief and treatment differences that may exist in relation to stuttering. I have some questions for you… 1st - Why do you believe reading aloud was a benefit to your fluency. Might it be similar to those who adopt different characters/voices or sing and do not stutter? 2nd - To what extent do you feel the fear, shame, and depression contributed to your stuttering during childhood, if at all? Would you say this was a factor for the increase in your stuttering during your university years? 3rd - Why is stuttering taboo in Cameroon? Lastly, it is amazing what you have done and are currently doing for the stuttering community. Have you noticed any changes in Cameroon since your efforts began?
