Episode #27 Aphasia and Stroke Survivor Grief, How to Recognize and Process Grief "Your loved one may not have the ability to voice their emotions due to their aphasia. They may not recognize that their actions can be speaking louder than their words. Don't take their reactions personally. If they're having a bad day, it may have nothing to do with you. " - Genevieve Richardson   DESCRIPTION Focus on any small changes that can be made to improve the situation. Acknowledge how you might perceive what your spouse is feeling at the time. Maybe you're onto something, and you can help them explore their feelings about the situation using your words.   HIGHLIGHTS OF THIS EPISODE REASONS A SURVIVOR MAY FEEL GUILT RECOGNIZE THE SYMPTOMS HOW TO HELP THE SURVIVOR RECOGNIZE THEIR GRIEF BE MINDFUL     Grab a copy of our eBook Top Tips for Aphasia Communication + Self-Care   For more content from this episode, including a Reader's Guide and Excerpts, subscribe to the Listen for LIFE Podcast Series HERE _________________   ☀️  LIVE SHOW ALERT  ☀️ The LIFE Speech Pathology SHOW THURSDAYS 11:00 AM CENTRAL Interact with the Host and Guests each Week View LIVE or Catch the Recording ON   👉🏻   LIFE Speech Pathology Facebook Page or 👉🏻  Listen For LIFE Podcast on Youtube!   For subscribers of the Listen for LIFE Podcast series, you will receive exclusive content from the live show when it posts to the podcast the following week.  Content includes a PDF summary of the episode with key takeaways and any materials such as ebooks, workbooks, or guides from the show.   Not sure if you subscribed to the podcast series or want to subscribe now?  Follow this link 🔗  SUBSCRIBE TO THE PODCAST SERIES  🔗   ___________________ 📆  FREE CONSULTATION  📆 Do you or your loved one have aphasia and want to know if you can do more with communication?
