It's our very first BONUS episode! We’re doing something a little different. Join speech pathology graduate students Aidan, Kate, & Allison in a series of illuminating interviews with 4 of the caregivers featured in the book Caring For a Loved One with Aphasia After Stroke: A Narrative-Based Support Guide for Caregivers, Families and Friends.
This audio documentary explores what it means to care for a loved one after a seismic disruption to their lives, language, and sense of self.
Find out more about the book at the center of today’s episode HERE. The book is available online through several retailers, including Amazon, Barnes and Noble, and on the publisher’s website, Springer Nature. All proceeds of the book’s sale are donated to the Aphasia Programming Fund via the UConn Foundation to directly support rehabilitative and life participation efforts of people with aphasia as well as their families.
A HUGE thank you to our guests Noreen, Deb, Gail, and Pat for sharing your stories with us today.
