He had difficulty reading and writing. He also had trouble swallowing. When his children visited him in the hospital, he couldn' t follow their activities and busy schedules. He felt so removed from them. Worries Sara was worried about Richard' s health, but she had other worries, too. How would the mortgage be paid? Would she be able to work, raise the children, and assume her husband' s household responsibilities? Who would she rely on? Richard always gave her good support and advice, but he couldn' t now.

    aphasia is a loss or impairment of the ability to produce or comprehend aphasia is caused by damage to one or more of the language areas of the brain.

    Extractions: Over US$225,000 has been donated so far! Other charities also need your help. Aphasia is a loss or impairment of the ability to produce or comprehend language , due to brain damage . It is usually a result of damage to the language centres of the brain (like Broca's area ). These areas are always located in the left hemisphere and in most people this is where the ability to produce and comprehend language is found. However in a very small number of people language ability is found in the right hemisphere. Damage to these language areas can be caused by a stroke or physical injury. Depending on the area and extent of the damage, someone may be able to speak but not write, or vice versa, or understand more complex sentences than he can produce. The brains of young children with brain damage sometimes restructure themselves to use different areas for speech processing, and regain lost function; adult brains are less "plastic" and lack this ability. Aphasia can be assessed in a variety of ways, from quick clinical screening at the bedside to several-hour-long batteries of tasks that examine the key components of language and communication.

    Extractions: Aphasia is a neurological disorder caused by damage to the portions of the brain that are responsible for language. Primary signs of the disorder include difficulty in expressing oneself when speaking, trouble understanding speech, and difficulty with reading and writing. Aphasia is not a disease, but a symptom of brain damage. Most commonly seen in adults who have suffered a stroke, aphasia can also result from a brain tumor, infection, head injury, or dementia that damages the brain. It is estimated that about 1 million people in the United States today suffer from aphasia. The type and severity of language dysfunction depends on the precise location and extent of the damaged brain tissue.
