Yes, raspy soft vocalizations, which combined with my hearing loss, makes for interesting conversations! Lol

Totally what Clyde is doing. It's like he dropped his voice to the lowest he can go and then whispers. I can't hear him. He also has so much trouble walking. He sleeps alot. I really don't see him here next year. He turns 80 Aug 25. I hate this disease.

Yes my husband recently started talking with a low voice. Difficult to have conversations with him and when I asked to speak louder he becomes irritated with me.

My husband mumbles gibberish! I think he just cant express himself and its difficult for him. No one understands what he is saying so he seldoms talks anymore! People try to listen but look at him questioning... so he gave up! Heartbreaking!

Yes my stepmom's voice is so quiet that I have to turn off any TV or radio that might be on and put my ear right up close to her face. Even after asking her to repeat 2-3 times, it often just sounfs like incoherent mumbling.
This is a recent development. Before, it might take 3 or 4 times asking her but we could usually figure out what she was saying. Very discouraging. I'm sorry you are going through this. It's so awful.
