And remember:

🗣️ Aphasia is a language disorder that affects your ability to communicate. It's most often caused by strokes in the left side of the #brain that controls #speech and language.

People with aphasia may struggle with #communicating in daily activities at home, socially, or at #work. They may also feel isolated.

Aphasia doesn't affect intelligence.
