Here Damian talks about how DLD has affected his life, and how the charity Afasic has been there to support him throughout.Find the struggles that Damian had to go through in his life for him to speak.Finding a Voice recounts the journey Damian has taken. From the early years, he was struggling to be diagnosed and have the disability recognized, to being heard as Vice President of Afasic. People with Disabilities Physical Illness & Disease
