Imagine waking up tomorrow to the horrible realization you’ve lost the ability to speak or communicate.“How are you feeling?” your loved one asks.What you want to say is, “A little strange.”What comes out of your mouth, however, is very different: perhaps a grunt, a random word like “Cat,” or nothing at all.For anyone who has Aphasia--whether as the result of a stroke or not--or who has cared for someone with Aphasia, that scenario is all too familiar.In this short, readable guide, Aphasiologist and Speech-Language Pathologist Brooke Lang M.A. CCC-SLP outlines what it is like to live with Aphasia, and how to help yourself or someone close to you deal with its consequences.
