Foreign Accent Syndrome

This syndrome causes people to speak their native language as if they had a foreign accent. Wacky, no?

I don't find this condition wacky at all. In fact, I'm a patient with FAS. I don't appreciate being labeled "wacky." The fact of the matter is that you don't know what us FAS patients face on a daily bases. I've had to learn how to speak again. I've had to relearn words. I was accused of lying in the airport of where I'm from. Its sad when you have a brother who has nearly died for your country, and because of a "rare" medical condition I'm labeled. Think before you speak~ We are truly medical patients who have a true medical condition. Pattie

You should be thankful, Pattie, because it's quite humorous for us.

you seem to have overcome the disease quite nicely, si Pattiekins. For those of us still suffering, it owns us.
