In his blog entry, Dilbert creator Scott Adams describes his experiences with Spasmodic Dysphonia, a condition that is usually irreversible. He writes:
When I say my brain remapped, that’s the best description I have. During the worst of my voice problems, I would know in advance that I couldn’t get a word out. It was if I could feel the lack of connection between my brain and my vocal cords. But suddenly, yesterday, I felt the connection again. It wasn’t just being able to speak, it was KNOWING how. The knowing returned.
It's a very interesting description of how he essentially relearned how to talk. The story parallels that of Milton Erickson overcoming polio.
Great news, and best wishes to Scott!
