Aphasia is a loss of language caused by a neurological event, usually a stroke. It is devastating for the patient and family. Since Aphasia can present itself in a variety of ways, the disorder can be confusing to understand as well. Most individuals who suffer from Aphasia can benefit from speech-language therapy. I just came across a great TED talk that explains Aphasia. Feel free to call or email me questions! -Diane
