#WordyWednesdays  #Aphasia #ApraxiaofSpeech #VerbalApraxia

After my stroke I am dealing with Expressive Aphasia, Anomia, and  Apraxia of Speech (Verbal Apraxia).

When in comes to acquired adult apraxia / aphasia , the vast majority are due to a brain injury.

This is the first video in the series of videos that will be published every other Wednesday, in which we will deal with communication deficits / disorders after a #BrainInjury, #Stroke, or #Concussion.

We will be dealing with some basic strategies and accommodations that can improve how we interact and relate to the world.  So that eventually we can overcome and conquer the communication difficulties and educate those around us.
