This Book was created for my father who has Aphasia.
This Book has been designed to help with an Aphasia patents recovery at his or her own pace..
There are also different levels of Aphasia, one person may regain speaking very quickly another not so quickly.
First you learn to speak, then read, then write.
As I worked with my father to help him regain his speech, reading and writing, I realized the process was the same as for a child.
How you choose to use each page is up to you and your patient or loved one.
Also on each page are three levels of difficulty.
Each page of the Aphasia Workbooks include photographs of different items common to every day living.
Having a tangible Book that he can take with him and anyone can pick up and use added consistency throughout his recovery.
I remembered the doctor in the beginning telling me to make every visit a productive visit.
He seemed to progress faster when he worked one on one with another human being.
I also tried computer based speech therapy applications, which were only available when he had access to a computer.
I tried workbooks made for children however these seemed to insult his intelligence.
Over the months while working with my father on his Speech Therapy homework I realized how difficult it was for him to identify the hand drawn black and white pictures that were presented to him on his work sheets.
