Kammy opened up on GMB about the disorder called apraxia of speech and how it has effected him reporting on Soccer Saturday. The whole footballing world is with you chris_kammy ❤️
confirmed he is suffering from apraxia of speech - a neurological disorder that affects the brain pathways involved in planning the sequence of movements involved in producing speech.
The brain knows what it wants to say, but cannot properly plan and sequence the required speech sound movements.on Friday morning, the 64-year-old spoke in depth about the condition - and said the stream of supportive messages on social media has been"incredible." "Today is a good day. Today I think I'm fine, I don't know how I sound. But it seems as if I'm ok," Kamara began in the chat with GMB."But on Saturday I was doing a report for Sky at Rotherham and unbeknown to me, because I'm not really sure about how it comes out, because if I explain my apraxia, we take for granted the fact that when we think and coming through our speech it's comfortable, it's easy, it's natural.
'My apraxia, because it varies in different people, when it's bad it stops those signals from that brain going to that mouth, so it slows it down. In fact, at times it slurs the words as well. So people are looking and thinking, 'Is he alright? Is he drunk?'" 'I never in a million years expected that response, but everyone has been so brilliant, so kind' :heart:
