    A stroke happens when a blood clot blocks a blood vessel or artery, or whena blood vessel breaks, interrupting blood flow to an area of the brain.  
    http://strokesupport.com/
    
    Extractions: A stroke happens when a blood clot blocks a blood vessel or artery, or when a blood vessel breaks, interrupting blood flow to an area of the brain. The stroke kills brain cells in the immediate area. These cells usually die within minutes to a few hours after the stroke starts. When brain cells die , the abilities they controlled are lost or impaired. This includes functions such as speech, movement, and memory. The specific abilities lost or affected depend on where in the brain the stroke occurs and on the size of the stroke (i.e., the extent of brain cell death). Do your own at-home speech therapy

    Extractions: Welcome to the The Tavistock Trust for Aphasia Some years ago the Duke of Bedford suffered a stroke. His life was saved by prompt and highly skilled surgery, but he was left for many months with a severe disturbance of his speech of a type known as aphasia. With the help of intensive speech therapy, he slowly began to recover, although even now he experiences difficulty accessing the words he needs or wants to use. Why the charity was founded The Duke's experiences at the time of his stroke left him in no doubt about the difference that continual speech and language therapy made. He also became aware of the lack of help available to sufferers of aphasia in this country. A lack of funds within the NHS means that speech and language therapists in hospitals tend to be diverted to life threatening conditions, and much of their time is taken up with swallowing difficulties. Virtually no help is available for aphasics and minimal speech and language therapy is offered. That was why the Duke founded 'The Tavistock Trust for Aphasia', to try and ensure that more people could have access to the quality of treatment he received. He called it the 'Tavistock Trust for Aphasia' because that was his name. When his father died in October 2002 he became the Duke of Bedford and his eldest son is now Tavistock.

    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. Generally, aphasia can be divided into four broad categories: (1)

    http://www.mossresourcenet.org/aphasia.htm
    
    Extractions: Aphasia is a language disorder that results from damage to portions of the brain that are responsible for language. For most people, these are parts of the left side (hemisphere) of the brain. Aphasia usually occurs suddenly, often as the result of a stroke or head injury, but it may also develop slowly, as in the case of a brain tumor. The disorder impairs both the expression and understanding of language as well as reading and writing. Aphasia may co-occur with speech disorders such as dysarthria or apraxia of speech, which also result from brain damage. Who has aphasia? Anyone can acquire aphasia, but most people who have aphasia are in their middle to late years. Men and women are equally affected. It is estimated that approximately 80,000 individuals acquire aphasia each year. About one million persons in the United States currently have aphasia. What causes aphasia? Aphasia is caused by damage to one or more of the language areas of the brain. Many times, the cause of the brain injury is a stroke. A stroke occurs when, for some reason, blood is unable to reach a part of the brain. Brain cells die when they do not receive their normal supply of blood, which carries oxygen and important nutrients. Other causes of brain injury are severe blows to the head, brain tumors, brain infections, and other conditions of the brain. In contrast to Broca's aphasia, damage to the temporal lobe may result in a fluent aphasia that is called Wernicke's aphasia. Individuals with Wernicke's aphasia may speak in long sentences that have no meaning, add unnecessary words, and even create new "words." For example, someone with Wernicke's aphasia may say, "You know that smoodle pinkered and that I want to get him round and take care of him like you want before," meaning "The dog needs to go out so I will take him for a walk." Individuals with Wernicke's aphasia usually have great difficulty understanding speech and are therefore often unaware of their mistakes. These individuals usually have no body weakness because their brain injury is not near the parts of the brain that control movement.
