If all the proper consent and information is provided to both the family and the "subject" (I want to use the word "patient" probably; anyway!) then; I Agree - I am not against it at all; really - if it can help - it can help! :) Just; it has to be properly done of course; since well.. we are talking about the brain; which is the number 1 organ in the human body that is - well - (I guess i do not need to go into direct details *since really this subred. is about stuttering so - I should not take over it with* `neurology talk (Not claiming I can by the way!) )` shortly; the brain is "too" complicated to "make a mistake in" (if that makes sense) (which is by the way more reason I will only leave this to software) but I totally get your point; really - and if that could not-cure; but help(even for a briefly; a little bit) stuttering - that's jut 1 **major breakthrough in** my opinion!
