Welcome to the Superhero Younger Aphasia!

Aphasia is a communication disorder that affects speech, reading, writing, listening, and understanding. Aphasia usually happens after a stroke, aneurysm, brain injury, tumor, Alzheimer’s, and other infections.

Superhero Younger Aphasia:

  • “S”—Strong, Self, Superhero
  • “Y”—Young, Yourself, Yes
  • “A”—Adult, Aphasia, Awareness

Before Aphasia, we worked—as lawyers, HRs, firefighters, etc. We all lose language, but we are the same. If we have aphasia, we are Self, Strong, and Superheros.
