Brain Injury and Speech

Sharing some Information and Thoughts on Head and Brain Injury

Brain
I was reminded of this subject by a discussion I had with m (“the nurse”) yesterday. It reminded me of how I had to learn and practice talking in phrases(short) at first and very slowly for a long time all those years ago… and why she says I love reciting “short sharp” quotes so much nowdays…instead of constructing long sentences in my speech (like “normal” writers) and also having difficulties in telling/sharing stories verbally. See asphasia and dysphasia in Google searches). And that’s why writing suits me best!
