How Brain Fog Can Impact Relationships for Head and Neck Cancer Survivors - Carolyn Baylor, PhD

Carolyn Baylor, PhD, CCC-SLP shares how brain fog impacts relationships between head and neck cancer survivors and their loved ones. Brain fog is a real symptom and being transparent about how it affects the patient will help to maintain their relationships. Dr. Baylor suggests reducing distractions at important times to improve communication and process information. Creating simple systems to help the patient remember important information may reduce frustration and improve daily functioning.
