Yorksheather Posted October 17, 2007 Report Share Posted October 17, 2007 Thanks Snowdrop, I have enjoyed watching Gareth's interview about stammering and The McGuire programme , which is a very important part of his life , Gareth must get a lot out of helping his fellow stammers :smile: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Val4Gareth Posted October 17, 2007 Report Share Posted October 17, 2007 OMG I've just watched that interview and didn't he come across well. So relaxed (most relaxed I've ever seen him I think). It seems the answer to all the questions I've had recently are in that interview. He's got to revisit all these places where he couldn't speak previously, before he's able to really move on with his life and concentrate on his music. Is that the way everyone else saw it. If that is the case, whilst we may be a bit frustrated at the moment, we'll have the rewards of all Gareth's hard work eventually. I must say watching that has restored all my faith again (which I'm ashamed to say, I was definitely beginning to lose) :shocked: He's an inspiration and must be a total joy for all those people he has helped. He's taught me a lesson in learning how to be patient :heart: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorksheather Posted October 17, 2007 Report Share Posted October 17, 2007 To my mind all the rewards of Gareth's hard work is seeing Gareth helping the people with stammers get a full life , what is there to be frustrated about ? Gareth must get great satisfaction with being able to help through The McGuire course . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maggiemags Posted October 17, 2007 Report Share Posted October 17, 2007 That was utterly, utterly brilliant. What a joy to see him SO relaxed and confident. I hope he gives heart to other stammerers - it must mean so much to him. I'm more proud of him than I can possibly express. Here's a sound file of Gareth's chat for anyone who wants it GG_Late_Late_Show_October_2007.wma Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Val4Gareth Posted October 17, 2007 Report Share Posted October 17, 2007 what is there to be frustrated about What I've been frustrated about, was the way the music side of things didn't go quite as well as I'd hoped. Now after seeing that interview, I think I can see why almost every time Gareth was interviewed on TV, almost all the concentration was on the speech and very little on the music. This was the way Gareth obviously had to do things to get the results he wanted. Which in itself only emphasizes even more what an outstanding person he is. That he can be patient and wait for the ultimate success his music deserves until he conquers other factors in his life. I totally agree that seeing all the hard work Gareth puts in to helping other stammerers is very rewarding and I'm very proud of him. But much as thats nice for us to see, those rewards are Gareth's personal rewards. What I now want to see is him achieving the rewards he deserves for his outstanding musical ability, which is what brought him to our attention originally.

Floz Posted October 17, 2007 Report Share Posted October 17, 2007 Thanks for that. Lovely to watch and very moving. Good to see that he got a good length of time to talk from the heart and how relaxed was he? It really reinforced to me how important spreading the word and supporting people with stammers is to him.

Guest Posted October 17, 2007 Report Share Posted October 17, 2007 Thats was a really lovely interview. Thanks Snowdrop. Gareths dream, was always to help others. Isn't it great to see that dream come true for him. :heart: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowdrop Posted October 18, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 18, 2007 He certainly does. :heart: This article shows that amongst all of the conventional experts out there, people simply seeing the example of how he's progressed is very powerful. I wonder which documentary he is talking about? It might be the Trevor McDonald one, but Gareth was still struggling in that. I suppose it's all relative.

What I now want to see is him achieving the rewards he deserves for his outstanding musical ability, which is what brought him to our attention originally. Gareth's Music was his release when he couldn't speak,now that he can I think he finds much more satisfaction in helping other stammerers, acheive the happiness and control of their lives that he obviously has. Let's hope 19, find a way of combining music and the McGuire programme,as I'm sure Gareth won't be giving up his work with the McGuire.

Heather Posted October 18, 2007 Report Share Posted October 18, 2007 Thank you very much for putting those videos up. I thought Gareth was amazing, and his speech was excellent! I hope he can get a chance to promote his album too, as his music still needs to be heard by anyone who isn't already a diehard fan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
