My story at Penn Medicine
When I worked with the Therapy at Alex, she explained to me about using mind maps to use words to make a story. My aphasia makes setting stories is difficult. Before I had a stroke, I could talk with my friends and constantly talk stories and had fun. With Aphasia, my stories tell into three story. “I did that” was about the extent of this.
“I played golf”.
“My granddaughter was cute”.
“I am in Florida”.
“It was fun”.
Using these easy sentences became the beginning start to a long sentence.
