Father Patrick Lagan, who went to St Patrick's College in Maghera, struggled to say certain words as a boy because of his stammer. He's now based at St Eugene's Cathedral in Derry, where he officiates at weddings and funerals. Northern Ireland's five health trusts have told 麻豆社 News that about 600 people are currently being treated for a stammer. So, what's it like on a personal level? Our reporter Dean McLaughlin has been speaking to Fr Lagan.
