Carol Dow-Richards, ARC Director, knows this journey all too well as her son David had a massive stroke resulting in global aphasia. Her son was unable to read, write, or talk. One doctor suggested putting him in a nursing home. Today, David is walking again. Talking again. He is living independently and has an active life. But it wasn't easy.
