Chris Kamara thanks Kate for recommending treatment trial<\/h3>\n

Kate Garraway choked back tears during Thursday’s Good Morning Britain while chatting to Chris Kamara about her husband Derek Draper and the treatment he has received to help him speak again.<\/p>\n

It was an emotional moment, as Chris thanked Kate for recommending the treatment which has been helping him with his speech.<\/p>\n

The football pundit, who was diagnosed with Apraxia of speech, admitted to feeling “ashamed” that he was unable to speak and has been receiving a new treatment in Mexico.<\/p>\n

He said in the interview: “Talking to Kate, as you know Ben, I went to Mexico for some experimental treatment and it\u2019s working.\u201d<\/p>\n

Kate looked emotional as she replied: “Well it\u2019s wonderful, that\u2019s something I was nervous talking to you about, it\u2019s something Derek has had treatment for, I couldn\u2019t guarantee anything, they couldn\u2019t guarantee anything because it\u2019s very new but you feel it\u2019s really helped you which is incredible.\u201d<\/p>\n

Kammy went on: “Ah, amazing. When I’m not talking about the speech, because it\u2019s psychosomatic so it slows down when you\u2019re talking about it, the brain is so complex.<\/p>\n

“So when you talk about good things, like football and stuff like that, my voice goes back or if I try and put on a Scottish accent, you know you can talk fluently\u2026 The brain is crazy.\u201d<\/p>\n

The GMB host continued: \u201cIt\u2019s so complex and what you’re doing as well, talking about that shame that you felt and that it defined you.<\/p>\n

“The truth is that any kind of brain injury affects the way that people perceive you doesn\u2019t it, it affects that relationship with others, so by saying it doesn’t define you, you\u2019re championing it for a lot of other people.\u201d<\/p>\n
