Brilliant information 👏

It's easy to criticize a brain injury survivor because we can't see the way their disability effects them.
Make no mistake, brain injury can be disabling.

How can I help when communicating with someone living with aphasia? 🗣️🧠
❤️Pause and allow them time to speak.
❤️ Ask if your help is needed before giving it.
❤️Use alternative communication systems if appropriate (ex. keyboard, written expression, communication apps, etc.)

There are events in our lives that divide it into before and after.
Having a #stroke is one of those events. It takes time to recover and really get to know your new normal after a stroke.
Give yourself time.
