And? Did you have a typo or trail off?

Also, I'm glad they have something to offer you. What are possible side effects or negative repercussions?

No, that was a typo on my voice to text software's behalf.

Well, the main side effect that I will have to be looking out for is a bit of a speech impediment. Though I do that it will not affect my singing voice! ;)

My dad has a voice to text system and has all sorts of trouble with it. But, he really digs it when it works. :)

What kind of improvement are they hoping to see? I know it's hard not to get your hopes up (in addition to being totally nervous)... I can't help hoping this will drastically improve your life. <3

Well I have not had much of a problem with it, just the occasional glitch in the system.

As far as I have been able to tell, it should completely restrain my tremors. I have seen videos of patients before the operation and after. There is quite a bit of difference between the 2. As far as I am concerned, the benefits outweighed the risk.

No no no... there are no tumors. They merely went into my head and installed electrodes to dampen the effects of my tremors.

Oh! That is better news than tumors. Was the surgery painful? Hope they have successfully corrected the tremors :)

Well, as far as I know you should be able to just search for Goob and not have a problem there! Where have you been my dear?
