Description

People with aphasia who have lost their language from a stroke can still get it back! This book contains 15 chapters with metaphorical stories-in words we can understand-that help us learn the self-directed process of recovery. A brain damaged by a stroke can still function well enough to rewire itself and create new brain matter. All it takes is the time and effort to learn the steps of recovery by experiencing the brain activities in action. If you (or someone in your family) have suffered a stroke with aphasia, and want to know what it takes to repair one's language, this book is for you!

Author Biography:

Dr. Broussard was an associate dean at The Heller School at Brandeis University until his stroke in 2011. He started Stroke Educator, Inc. (2015) and founded Aphasia Nation, Inc. (2020), a nonprofit. Both are focused on Tom's international Aphasia Awareness Campaign dedicated to educating the wider public about aphasia, a life-changing language disorder that few people have ever heard of.As of the publication of this book (March 2022), he has given over 450 presentations-to more than 13,000 people with aphasia and their families and caregivers, as well as to clinicians and students-extending over 32 US states, plus India and Hong Kong.To learn more, visit StrokeEducator.com and AphasiaNation.org
