Reader,
Hey [Name],
Imagine knowing exactly what you want to say but struggling to get the words out. That’s what many stroke survivors with aphasia experience every day. Aphasia affects speech, understanding, reading, and writing, making communication frustrating—but your patience and support can make a huge difference!
In this YouTube video, we dive into what aphasia is and why a little patience goes a long way when talking with a stroke survivor.
How You Can Help:
💡 Be patient – Give them time to find their words. No rushing!
💬 Use simple language – Short sentences and clear words help.
🙌 Encourage, don’t correct – Focus on what they’re saying, not how they say it.
❤️ Stay supportive – Frustration happens, but kindness and understanding make communication easier.
Aphasia doesn’t affect intelligence—it just makes expressing thoughts harder. Your support can help stroke survivors rebuild their confidence and communication skills!
