    Hi Julie,

    My DH has VD and not able to send texts anymore (I really miss his long and sweet texts). Any tips on how to resume that? I tried doing voice recording in sending texts but he can’t do it. He blames his iPhone so I got him a newer model and still can’t do it. We do call now instead.

    You’re doing good and stay healthy. Sending you a hug!


    Love,

    Dolly
