Recovery is not a straight line. There are ups, and downs, and even plateaus, but it is important to remember that as long as you are working on your therapy exercises, your brain is working on healing. #Rehabilitation#Neuroplasticity#Stroke#TBI#Aphasia
#aphasiarecovery is lifelong and looks different for everyone. “Aphasia is not a dead end. It’s just a road block. Keep going. Work hard. And never give up!”
Thank you Bob for sharing your incredibly inspiring recovery journey! #EauCLamarAphasia@sutton23231

Aphasia therapy is more than prioritizing language and communication needs. I love the idea of dogs providing people with aphasia the social and emotional support they need throughout the therapy process! #EauCLamarAphasia@sutton23231
