Last month was #AphasiaAwarenessMonth - thank you to our lovely Stroke rehab SLT's and Apprentice for your work involving patients (@rockingaphasia.com) and raising the profile to staff in the hospital of what we do! 🗣️ #AdultRehabilitationBCHC
I have aphasia and the frustration I experience trying to find my words. I know the word I need is there, but I cannot speak it. There’s a fear that I’m seen as less than intelligent by my peers.
When someone struggles be patient with us.

Using language is a vital life skill for maintaining relationships and influencing our life worlds.
This #AphasiaAwarenessMonth, we spoke to Dr Suzanne Beeke (@uclpals.bsky.social) about her research into how we can keep conversation going after stroke.
"Children with aphasia may sometimes exhibit frustration or emotional distress when trying to communicate, leading to behavioral problems or social isolation."

🖊 The pen is no better.
🪨 But the seabed gave us better material.
🏝 So we've prepared some more #RockingAphasia stones for leaving on Ischia.
🇮🇹 It being Italy, we've done #RockingAfasia too.

A rock with the hashtag #RockingAphasia on it on Maronti beach on Ischia.
🤦🏻♂️ Came to Ischia without the pen we needed to take #RockingAphasia properly to Maronti beach. So we had to make do with what we could find on the seabed.
