I don't know you, but I am so proud of what you've done. My heart is happy for you. I've come to realize that self-acceptance ("f**k it, this is who I am, stutter and all") is so important to living as a person who stutters. Whether one stutters a little or a lot or somewhere in between, and whether that person becomes more fluent or not at all, if that person realizes that he or she is more than the way he/she talks, is worth more, and can do so many things regardless of how the speech comes out, the better and more fulfilling life that person will have.
