Hi Teal,
Thank you. I am definitely interested in the field and will do my best to
learn what I can about adapting techniques for all disorders I may
encounter.

Hello all

this is true with the swallowing because one would be monitoring the 
swallowing through visual recognition. Also i just want to say make sure you

look into this because i would've never known all the things that a speech 
pathologist is involved if i had not needed one.
