I guess you could say that we're in the second stage of this stm because now we've progresed to not being able to remember words and many words that are used just come out wrong and it frustrates her and myself.

We're trying to put together a plan that works without my stepping on her mic when she's trying to say something and i'm trying to be too helpful. That to is a bone of contention.

Will keep you all posted as time goes by.
