This 5 yr old girl was diagnosed with Childhood Apraxia of Speech at age 3 after an inconclusive MRI. After 3 years of speech therapy, 1 year of full time school and a set of tubes, she is almost up to par with her peers on talking. STICK WITH SPEECH THERAPY! It works!! Check my previous years videos to see the difference!

  • These videos are so great. Our two year old son has apraxia if speech. He is such an outgoing and lovable kid, and seeing your daughter's amazing progress gives me so much hope for our son. He goes to speech therapy three times/week, and we are already seeing such progress!

  • @MrCalebkennedy Thanks so much for your kind words. KEEP UP THE SPEECH THERAPY! Ask questions and continue therapy at home! We are firm believers that it makes a huge difference! Praying for your sweet son's progress! We would love to see videos!

  • @UrbanKowboy We finally got around to posting our first video our of son, who is now almost 29 months. He's made such strides over the past five months! I am so eager to watch him progress even further -- your daughter is such an inspiration to us!

  • @MrCalebkennedy GREAT! I cannot wait to watch! Thanks for sharing!

  • This made me cry, i saw the video when she was only 3 and it was like i was listening to my daughter, and now she sounds so good! It gives me hope that my daughter will be just fine!

  • @mummy2alivia I will be praying for your daugther. It is actually horrible to watch them struggle through it but I am so thankful that it wasn't anything that long term therapy cannot fix (or maybe even short term!) It is amazing what little minds can accomplish!

  • I just wanted to thank you for sharing this video. My son is 2.5 and has apraxia and seeing your little girl brings me to tears knowing that he may be able to speak as well as her one day. The difference in the videos is amazing, and gives me so much hope. Thank you again, you have no idea how much hope it has given me.

  • Splendid, absolutely splendid (easy for me to write) saw the 1st video and now this one over 10 minutes, the progress of your daughter is splendid YET this way the hard work your daughter, the speech therapist and you put over months, is not seen, ONLY the results. Congratulations

  • aww this touches my heart. My daughter will be 4 next month. I am not sure if she has a lisp or what not... but she cannot say her f, s, and things of that nature. This is encouraging to watch your daughter. My son didnt start talking until he was 3 because he was diagnosed with severe autism. He is 5 now, and has done a complete turn around because of speech therapy. I will be putting my daughter in it next month! thankfully.

  • my son is almost 6 years old and he has such severe speech apraxia that we can't understand a lot of what he says. He's not getting any speech therapy because they only gave him one session...and stopped when he turned 5. I'm soooo frustrasted.

  • I LOVE HER SIGGING.

  • Great progress, sooooo good to see that she's doing better. :) Wondering how often she's getting therapy?
