লেখা characters with disabilities?

I have a character with Ataxic Cerebral Palsy, so a big part that will stand out is her speech. I don't know how I should write that; should I write the dialogue the way it sounds when she speaks? (I'm afraid this would be hard for readers to figure out what she's saying, and I'm afraid it'd be offensive for some?) The disability is a big part of the story, so I need to emphasize it, but I don't know exactly how to do that? Any help/advice would be helpful. Also, if আপনি ever wrote a character with any kind of disability, I'd প্রণয় to hear about it. Thanks for the help.

Wait what kind of speech impediment is it? Like a stutter অথবা lisp?

It's আরো of an articulation impediment, with exaggerated mouth movements. People with ataxic cp have a hard time pronouncing words; and I hate describing it like this but I guess it's similar to way a three বছর old would try to speak? It just sounds off and can be hard to understand sometimes.

maybe add stresses to certain syllables??? oi see how it'd be difficult to write exaggerated mouth movements.

Try to really think about a time when maybe আপনি met অথবা talked to someone w/ the disease. If আপনি haven't, try to research speech patterns of people with the disorder. If আপনি find that it is just hard to make that really come across to a reader, than find a clever way to address অথবা bring up the fact that thus character suffers from it. Also, I think that using the correct বিবরণ words would help also. The physical বিবরণ of this person as well as how they সরানো can be very effective in conveying a speech impediment অথবা disorder.
