Haley, I'm so sorry to read about all that you're dealing with right now. As you've been told every kid learns to talk at his/her own pace. I wouldn't be too concerned about Micah's lack of speech right now. Some kids just learn a lot slower than others. My daughter, Amy, had problems with being understood when she did finally talk. We worked with a speech therapist for a year or so to help improve her speech. One of the most important things that I remember learning was to have them look at your mouth and how you form words so they can see how you speak and say words. I checked into right before she went to kindergarten. Good Luck!!
