Aphasia recovery April 2016

Aphasia and communication
1

Remarkable recovery for me , still have a delay in speech( from only 1 word)....... (when)

Now communication is amazing but a lot frustration when people pretend understand me

as a volunteer helps others as well my practice and reward x

I also suffer from asphasia but it is improving slowly but surely. I couldn't speak at all but now I can speak a bit, still difficult for other people to understand me. When I hear other people have got better it makes me feel better.

I had my strokes in July 16 2017 and I still work like hell at getting better or should I say on improving Heidi. I had 2 strokes one in the morning at home and the second one at night in the hospital.

I have had aphasia for 13 years. It gets better over time. I gets frustrated when I can't get the words out even in the middle of a sentence..... I drive. I'm a chairman at my local stroke club. Just be positive(when you can be) One thing ----- my left hand is the dominant hand. I can't talk as well as I could but I can write beautifully!!!!     laugh
