On episode 88 we release a recent conversation with Mark Brodie as a rebroadcast from a Know Stroke Substack Live event with co-host David Dansereau. Mark connected with us after listening to our episode on PFO which also is believed to have caused his stroke. As part of his recovery journey Mark and his family had to learn how to find resources to help with his aphasia as a deficit from his stroke during covid shutdowns.
Mark’s Top Stroke Recovery Resources Mentioned:
Just Ask (Aphasia Support ), Stroke Onward , Stroke Awareness Oregon , Mid Atlantic Aphasia , National Aphasia Synergy (shirt Mark mentioned he was wearing!), National Aphasia Organization , American Stroke Association
This is a fitting episode to release for World Stroke Day as the topics and themes covered include all areas of stroke care from knowing the stroke warning signs, to caregiver support, the public stigma around aphasia, use of technology and home therapy, to the power of community and especially the importance of stroke support organizations that helped Mark restore balance and find his voice again after stroke.
Other Episode Mentions:
Therapy apps: Tactus Therapy , Constant Therapy
