Spooky Aphasia at PACT PT Therapy Class

April 19, 2023

Aphasia sucks, but it makes me fun every day. My brain works fine. I see something, and I know what I saw, and the story in my brain tells what I want to say, but then the words don’t work. When I try to say what I want, I need to figure out

Last week, my son told me that Bruce Willis had aphasia. I have something in common. “Die Hard” was one of my favorite movies, and his action hero, John McLane, played by Bruce Willis, was awesome. No, I’m not John McClane. I have aphasia. I listened to the stories on the news. Many

In each story, I tried to learn something new to work on what I have trouble speaking. Many of these are fun to remember and learn how to write again.
