Expressive dysplasia

Just a quick up date about my partners aphasia.

He has done this since before his stroke.

But yesterday he said the alphabet up to h :grinning_face: with out getting letters mixed up and then he did after that.

Also he counted to 10.

I think thats really positive progress

Well done him! Every little step leads to more. Do you keep a diary of the little steps he makes?

I havent really. But I tell him all the time the progress he makes

Every time he tries helps him get it all back. He’s doing great, it’ll come.

Terrific, his brain is getting more and more stimulated, and I hope he is enjoying it because it is something to be pleased about, the brain needs those reward signals just like a pet responds to treats. I think this is fabulous progress.

Thank you so much.

It was 10 months yesterday since his ischemic stroke.

Slow and steady wins the race. That’s great news. New neurones in his brain are triggering and making connections again. It will happen with patience and time. This is a definite positive to be proud of. Long may this improvement continue :crossed_fingers:

Excellent progress. Keep going.

I’m a member of Aphasia Reconnect (even though I don’t have Aphasia - long story).

They have many online groups. A great charity and you can attend what you like.

Let me know if you need more info.
