thank you for this video, can you also advice speech therapy activities for patients with limited mobility?
@atlasaphasiacenter

Ooh, great question! As always, it would depend on the person's level. One simple thing to do would be to hold up objects, say the name of the object, and have them try to repeat after you. Pick things that are important to them to make it more interesting! Ex: coffee, glasses, a picture of a pet. If the person can read, you could hold up the object and a notecard with the word, and ask them to read the word aloud. Music can also be really great speech practice! Choose slower songs that they are familiar with (think "Let it Be" or "Here Comes the Sun") and have them try to sing along with you saying the words at a slower pace. Additionally, there may be other videos on our channel that can help your loved one - and we'll keep making more! So be sure to check back frequently or subscribe :) You are welcome to send an email if you have other questions (info@atlasaphasia.org)

So sorry to hear about your friend. Not being able to communicate is super frustrating. Many people with aphasia lose friends because their loved ones feel awkward or don't know how to help, so it makes me so happy that you're searching for answers and sticking with her. She needs you now more than ever! Sending big hugs.

Thank you! This is almost identical to the Montessori method for teaching language skills to young children. Two other elements in that method include 1) making sure that the “student” reaches across the midline of their body (ie reaching with their right hand to pick up an item and placing to the left side of the table or vice versa as they match items/cards) in order to encourage neurodevelopment between both sides of the brain (as explained in my Montessori training- I have no medical expertise and may not even be explaining/recalling that accurately) 2) a specific hand washing activity that involves lathering soap on each individual finger from palm to fingertip- both to teach young children good hygiene AND to stimulate/promote development of the prefrontal cortex. (Again, I don’t have medical training, this was part of my training for teaching preschool age children) I don’t know if these reasons are supported in modern neuroscience because Dr. Montessori received her medical training over 100 years ago, but I’m curious if you have any insight? I have a friend recovering from a stroke and I’ve been thinking of incorporating hand massage and activities like the ones you shared into our time together. Thank you so much for this video!

Thanks for the comment and I'm glad you found this video helpful! 1) Crossing the midline (moving left hand over to the right side and vice versa) has been shown to strengthen the connections between the two sides of the brain, especially in early childhood development. I'm not sure if this directly translates to recovery in an adult following a brain injury. (A PT or OT might have more insight!) Sometimes it can be tricky to do this after a stroke, due to spasticity or weakness. But if it isn't painful, there's no reason not to try! There is a type of speech therapy called Melodic Intonation Therapy that incorporates hand tapping while intoning speech based on this idea. 2) From what I understand, massage therapy can help with some effects of a stroke (like weakness, pain, swelling), but does not help with speech/language difficulty. However, again - if it isn't painful and your friend is willing, you could certainly incorporate some of this. You are sweet for spending time with your friend! Many people feel lonely, isolated, and frustrated following a stroke. A support system makes all the difference in terms of mental health and quality of life ❤

Concussions can definitely cause language and cognitive deficits long-term. You may want to look into "post-concussion syndrome." A speech therapist can help diagnose/treat the issue. It may be more related to language, or more related to concentration, memory, and paying attention, but a therapist could help you figure that out!

I know this is not the answer anyone wants... but it is different for everybody. It depends on the size of the lesion that caused the aphasia, how quickly the person got treatment, their motivation, overall health, and age, among other factors. Some people recover within weeks or months, but some people take years. Some people continue to have some residual deficits for the rest of their lives. But you can always improve with practice!

Hi! It's hard to offer specific advice without meeting your client. But using visual aides is often very helpful for people with aphasia. You might use pictures to explain what you're saying - or offer picture choices for your client so she can express herself better. Having aphasia is super frustrating. Be patient with her and give her extra time.
