My husband had a stroke 2 weeks ago that resulted in him having global aphasia. Hope to start speech therapy this week. Your videos are just what I need: full of concrete useful information. Thank you so much for all of this.

Thank you for this very helpful video. I have a 30 year old brother who became aphasic (with dominant hemiplegia) in a traumatic brain injury a decade ago. He is in Pakistan and there aren't many resources for aphasia treatment. One persistent problem that I now understand is that he also has apraxia of speech alongwith aphasia which makes his communication very very limited. His writing has improved a lot in comparison to verbal speech. The words that he does try to produce don't sound right, and have no clarity. Most of the communication he does with people around him is with gestures which are often not understood, so his aphasia/apraxia is quite socially isolating. It has taken me a long time to understand that his problem is dual, and so far we were mainly trying to find resources for aphasia only. Are there any resources to help patients who have both these problems combined? I will really appreciate any hints/guidances.

Can you have aphasia but can remember some words in songs or poems? If so, any recommendations on treatments

Leo Pantaleon I write the words of a song to the Google Translate. I listen many times and then I try to say the words. It was helping me a lot.

I could imagine that's because music is riveting? so since you could infer a rhythm or hear the singer, its easier to learn/say.Though since you cant read aloud for more than 15 min, and your could only read 10 mins after that, and are re-reading paragraphs because you dont comprehend them,right? Sounds like a traumatic thalamus injury from PTSD.

Often what you find is that automatic communicative acts remain intact in aphasic individuals, such as saying "hello", or answering "I'm fine" when someone asks you how are today. As for resources, I would recommend trying to see a speech pathologist as they are the specialist in this area. They can help narrow down what kind of resources are relevant to the individual.

Fish oil and coconut oil causes nerve cell regeneration. Army on research on it. Lady doctor on Alzheimer's...it worked for her husband, sago mine disaster victim on fish oil. Me...had aphasia. Multiple strokes. Could only barely crawl amd had sto learn to stand up and walk again. Omce couldn't understand English. Be patient. Brairecovery is slow but worked each time for me. A year or 2" try to walk if can. Try 20 to 4o min a day, it releases BdNF.
