Hi,

At the beginning of our meeting, I read the agenda I made.
Then I said that I had a stroke last summer and that was the reason I have trouble getting my words out. I also admitted to / apologized for one project last fall that did not go so well because of the stroke.

Silence for 2 seconds.

Then they started talking about other stuff.
Thank goodness that is over.
Today when I slid through some words or stumbled a little or searched for the name of an actor in conversation I did not feel uncomfortable. I did not feel the need to cover up.

M.
