Today on World Stroke Day, we highlight a vital message: Every minute counts.

By learning to spot the signs of stroke (Face drooping · Arm weakness · Speech difficulty · Time to call 911) , we can act fast to save lives and reduce long-term effects.

We also want to remind you, stroke isn’t just about paralysis or numbness. It can dramatically affect a person’s ability to communicate. Aphasia is a LANGUAGE disorder which typically results from a stroke or traumatic brain injury in the left hemisphere. It causes difficulty accessing language, causing impairments in verbal expression, language processing, reading, and writing

June is 💕 This is a story of strength, courage, and communication. Living with Aphasia can make everyday conversations a challenge, but watching someone face those challenges with resilience and hope is truly inspiring.

"About nine months ago, it felt like the world switched to a language I didn’t understand. My stroke caused aphasia, a language disorder that affects your ability to speak, write, and comprehend. Millions of people live with aphasia, sometimes temporarily, sometimes for life, and yet it’s still so misunderstood. Strangers often assumed it was a cognitive issue, and even doctors and therapists don’t fully understand what it feels like from the inside.

I’ll never forget those early days and how devastating and isolating it was to lose something as fundamental as speech. Before the stroke, I was nervous to speak up: reading aloud in school, sharing ideas in college seminars, pitching at Romulus and RCAA. I worried I’d say the wrong thing. Looking back, it’s so humbling to think I once thought that was hard.

I wish I could snap my fingers and fast-forward to fluency, but recovery doesn’t work that way. If you have aphasia (or know someone who does), be patient, show grace, and own your voice (no matter what it sounds like today)."
