FTD is a group of brain disorders that affect the frontal and temporal lobes of the brain. It can cause difficulty with language, personality, behavior, and social skills.
Aphasia and FTD can make it difficult to speak, write, and understand language. They can also cause changes in personality and behavior that can impact communication skills.
Non-verbal communication is the use of body language, facial expressions, and other non-verbal cues to communicate. It is an essential part of human communication.
Non-verbal communication can help people with aphasia and FTD to connect with others and to express themselves, even when they are unable to use spoken language.
