Pretty much all my speech is based on learned patterns that I was taught to compensate for deficiencies, so I suppose it requires much brain function to use these learned compensations.
>**I'm glad to hear it's not an ongoing type of problem. Sort of reminds me of my son's eyes. He had muscle surgery on both eyes 5 years ago, at age 4, and when he grows tired one eye tends to slightly cross. The eye specialist says it's normal. My son has autism and though he's grown out of several behaviors he had when younger, they sometimes erupt when he's sleepy. It's kind of strange, how the mind and body react when tired.
All the Best,
