Gina was diagnosed with acquired apraxia of speech after a cerebral vascular accident (small stroke) in October of 2015. She wanted to find others who have apraxia but really, couldn't find any good examples of adults like her.  She decided she couldn't be the only one out there, so she posted videos of her and her progress.

Deonna Keiser is an artist who is living with the impacts of speech aphasia and apraxia as a result of a stroke. While Deonna is able to understand all spoken language, she sometimes has trouble formulating the words to speak. With the help of her dear friend Lisa Naser, and through her art, Deonna is able to communicate her day-to-day and emotional experiences.  When Art Speaks: Living after Stroke with Speech Aphasia and Apraxia - YouTube
