Aphasia Awareness Month
Clients from Special
Tree’s Day Treatment Services hit the road to enjoy a Toledo Mud Hens game on
June 25th and to raise awareness for aphasia, a condition that affects one’s
ability to communicate verbally following a TBI or stroke. The game had
special meaning for DTS Manager Neal Dregansky whose mother, Melodie Dregansky,
helped plan the event through the DaZy Aphasia Centre, a speech therapy clinic
she helped co-found that specializes in treating aphasia. Special
Tree Medical Director Dr. Dregansky also joined his family for the event.
