I'm so sorry to hear about your father. There will likely be an initial period where he needs lots of sleep. When he is more awake you can try some of these activities: ruclips.net/video/eY_0TWBivS0/видео.htmlsi=J5E2frO7dw1ODruu

Hello!

Aphasia can be so frustrating! Sending hugs ❤

Thanks for the comment and I'm glad you found this video helpful! 1) Crossing the midline (moving left hand over to the right side and vice versa) has been shown to strengthen the connections between the two sides of the brain, especially in early childhood development. I'm not sure if this directly translates to recovery in an adult following a brain injury. (A PT or OT might have more insight!) Sometimes it can be tricky to do this after a stroke, due to spasticity or weakness. But if it isn't painful, there's no reason not to try! There is a type of speech therapy called Melodic Intonation Therapy that incorporates hand tapping while intoning speech based on this idea. 2) From what I understand, massage therapy can help with some effects of a stroke (like weakness, pain, swelling), but does not help with speech/language difficulty. However, again - if it isn't painful and your friend is willing, you could certainly incorporate some of this. You are sweet for spending time with your friend! Many people feel lonely, isolated, and frustrated following a stroke. A support system makes all the difference in terms of mental health and quality of life ❤

I'm so sorry to hear about your sister. It's hard to say without meeting her, but I wonder if she had a stroke that affects the right side of her brain? Do you have access to speech therapy services? Cognitive-communication therapy can help

Glad it was helpful! Appreciate you taking the time to comment

Hi! It's hard to offer specific advice without meeting your client. But using visual aides is often very helpful for people with aphasia. You might use pictures to explain what you're saying - or offer picture choices for your client so she can express herself better. Having aphasia is super frustrating. Be patient with her and give her extra time.

@atlasaphasiacenter patience is something I have plenty of...thank you.

Thanks! I used these: a.co/d/aiKKAZX

​@@atlasaphasiacenterawesome, thank you! We have a Care Yaya nursing student caregiver that visits my mom and today we used these video techniques and they worked great! Thank you for all your help! 🙏❤️

@@Drsuzymoravick Love hearing this! ❤

So sorry to hear about your friend. Not being able to communicate is super frustrating. Many people with aphasia lose friends because their loved ones feel awkward or don't know how to help, so it makes me so happy that you're searching for answers and sticking with her. She needs you now more than ever! Sending big hugs.

That's a great idea - I hope it goes well! Love that you're personalizing it by using the things in his home that he uses every day

I'm not familiar with this program, but I like the idea of a multi-sensory approach. The key is practice, practice, practice! So whatever someone finds interesting and is willing to do A LOT is always great

So glad to hear this!

I know this is not the answer anyone wants... but it is different for everybody. It depends on the size of the lesion that caused the aphasia, how quickly the person got treatment, their motivation, overall health, and age, among other factors. Some people recover within weeks or months, but some people take years. Some people continue to have some residual deficits for the rest of their lives. But you can always improve with practice!

@@atlasaphasiacenter plz tell me one think if I say anything he can't understand in one time he takes time. Sometime he can't understand what I am saying and he will be angry. My father's age is 65year .

And name part is missing in sentences name of any object Persons name place name and festivals name

I'm glad you found this helpful!

So sorry to hear about your father. Coping with aphasia is really hard. It's difficult to tell you what to do without meeting your dad, but you could try exercises in this video! Make sure he is watching your lips when you speak, go slow, and be very patient with him.

I'm so sorry to hear about your stroke and aphasia. It's hard to give advice without knowing you, because every stroke is different. However, the National Aphasia Association website might have some helpful information: aphasia.org/helpful-materials/

You well fine ?? Reply me

1/5. I have to do another of this. Thank you.

@@JohnPaulBalanquit-m4p You can do it! 💪

Glad this is helpful!

I forgot, I'm exceptional well -educated man

Sorry to hear about your aphasia - it's super frustrating! And reading tends to be really tricky. Keep practicing! You can do it 💪

Thanks, I love hearing that!! Will do.

I have aphasia!

💃🎉

Practice, practice, practice! You can do it

I'm sorry to hear about your Parkinson's and aphasia. That sounds very frustrating. I tend to point to my mouth/chin when I am trying to focus people's attention on my mouth movements. Some people with aphasia - and especially those who *also* have apraxia of speech, need strong visual cues to be able to repeat words and phrases.

Glad you found this helpful!

Glad you enjoyed it, and thank you!!

Ugh, sorry to hear about your stroke. Hope these videos will help!

Keep going. You can do it!

Thank you, Ma'am Bri, that I am in the pray, speech therapy, and books for now.

I am in the teletherapy (Zoom) from the island to help the UST SLP.

I'm glad you found these videos helpful. Keep practicing! :)

Good morning Bri. Hello am I in the speech therapy and I am under of the book. I can memorize them because that help of me. I hope that you are for your baby and husband for all things. God bless.

@@JohnPaulBalanquit-m4p Thank you! ❤

I LOVE hearing this! Thank you for taking the time to write a comment. Big hugs to you & your husband. Practice, practice, practice! -Bri

You are strong! 💪 Sending hugs ❤

I have aphasia it is so sad because I can’t think of what to say

Concussions can definitely cause language and cognitive deficits long-term. You may want to look into "post-concussion syndrome." A speech therapist can help diagnose/treat the issue. It may be more related to language, or more related to concentration, memory, and paying attention, but a therapist could help you figure that out!

My dad is 94 and had a stroke in November. He is no longer getting speech therapy. Is is too late to try some of these things. He does use some words correctly but using slot of letters - T h e or nonsense letters.

@@soniajohnson8896 It's hard to say without meeting your dad or knowing his specific language difficulties, but this can't hurt! It is never too late to make progress - little by little. It often takes a lot of repetition and practice. Give it a try and be very patient with him.

I use this set of letters: a.co/d/60tWxU8 You may be able to find them somewhere else, or even make your own!

Nice! 👏

Glad you found this helpful! These activities come from clinical experience (and are easily replicated via RUclips). But there are tons of different methods. This may be a good place to start for summaries of different types of aphasia therapy, starting with word retrieval: www.aphasia.com/aphasia-library/aphasia-treatments/word-retrieval/ This article also has a lot of helpful hints for people with very severe/global aphasia: tactustherapy.com/global-aphasia/#:~:text=Apraxia%20Therapy%20may%20help%20people,tools%20for%20improving%20global%20aphasia.

Really good question! I usually make a study sheet or flashcards with the words plus the icons. We review (and/or they practice with a family member) until reading them aloud is easy. Then, I make a new study sheet or flashcards with JUST the words (no icons), to get them used to seeing the words in isolation, but still hopefully mentally picturing that mnemonic and being able to say the word correctly. Again, we do that until they have high success. When we move to phrases/sentences, I do sometimes insert the icons above the text. Alternatively, you can print a study sheet with the words they've worked on and have them refer to it when they get stuck. You can make the "tricky words" a different color within the connected text so they know to look on their reference sheet if they get stuck on those words.

I've also made a Quizlet deck for people to practice on their own. You can click the little audio symbol on the card to hear the word read aloud. quizlet.com/562050205/small-words-with-hints-flash-cards/?i=2zhzj2&x=1jqt

Many loved ones want to help, but don't know how! Hopefully this video will reach other people who could benefit. And wow - I'm sure it was really hard to have aphasia AND have young kids. But I'm glad their learning helped you. Proud of your continued hard work. It's a process! Sending hugs

Glad you found this helpful!

I'm glad you found it helpful!

I am sorry you have problems with speech :( Everyone's brain and recovery is different

work really hard and enjoy doing it like its the most enjoyable thing you have ever done. talk about things you enjoy. if you can make word noises your on your way. no such thing as a time on full recovery for it. it is all on you. remember how hard you wanted to talk when a baby. you need determination like that. listen to your favourite songs with lyrics. try to sing along. everyone is different. keep working on it. enjoy talking. don't stop. don't feel ashamed.
