Speech therapy is : the best way to treat persistent problems with articulation, which are usually a lisp for "s" & "z" & problems saying "r" & "l". If you had problems acquiring language & still have difficulty verbally expressing ideas and your heart disease is congenital ( from birth) rather than acquired, consider getting genetic testing for VeloCardioFacial Syndrome.
