It's because she cant talk anymore.
Its been so fast. I hate it so much. She can say "yeah" and then laugh and laugh, but that is it. They have a speech therapist who comes and works with her 3x a week, hoping to help, but it doesnt seem to be.
Crohn's wise she's doing pretty good.
She seemed glad to see us, which was a change. I could ask her questions and get a "yeah" or just a grin, or a laugh. They've told me to try to make her talk.
I spent some time showing her pictures on my phone, and some people she seemed to recognize.
