As the caregiver of someone with aphasia, there are many ways you can help. First, it is important not to patronize someone with aphasia. It does not affect intelligence, only communication ability. Second, be patient– with them and with yourself. Recovery is different for everyone. It is also important to know that rehabilitation extends beyond the therapy session. It may be helpful for you to give them cues while talking, or be present during their speech and language therapy sessions. Lastly, find community. You are not alone in this journey! The National Aphasia Association has a database of support groups and speech therapy professionals that you can consult.
