“Stroke Diary: Just So Stories, How Aphasia Got Its Language Back (Volume 3)”, by Thomas G. Broussard, Jr., Ph.D.

About the Book

Practice is more than just practice. Practice is the prescription for improvement. People with aphasia must become more aware that practicing is the cure. The book sections include Words, Language, Awareness, Memory, Thinking, Timing, Neurons, and Plasticity. The brain requires a special kind of “food”—activities and experiences which induce plasticity. These stories were part of the process of engaging the environment to “light up” learning, on the way to getting my language back.
