“Aphasia, the cruel illness resulting from a stroke, allowed Jean to understand what was said to her but prevented her from clearly replying.” – Robert Giroux.   Whether or not, each year is a new experience. This year’s 2020 was another one, and 2021 will be a new year.   Looking at 2020 is a

When I first started about my aphasia, it was driving me crazy. I knew there were words, but there was nothing to add to anyone. I could not read any of the books to read since I had a stroke. I took out Audible and got David Silva, “The Orders.” It was from my stories
