I’m proud to stutter

I’m 37 I’ve stuttered my whole life.. I ran for class president every year just to do the speech.. I played quarterback and I would get gassed just stuttering calling plays in the huddle. When the teacher said who wants to read my hand went up first. I just always took it as an opportunity to show people it’s OKAY TO BE DIFFERENT.. I was voted class clown I went to college I studied Shakespeare I love poetry and rap.. I fell into drug addiction and Freestyle battle rap kept me fed and out of trouble in jail.. I was so diagnosed with epilepsy at 27 and have had like 2500 grand mals which makes my speech worse but I shy away from nothing. I spoke to 150 kids at a school a few weeks ago…. I’m Proud To Be Exactly Who I am..
