Meet our ambassadors


Mary Lou Stott

Mary Lou is an ambassador for Aphasia Forward.

She lives just outside Philadelphia, Pa.

Her story:

I had a stroke on November 1, 2020, and then developed aphasia.

I was a bookkeeper, married to Bob for 45 years, had 3 children, Bob, Jim and Kate and had 3 grandchildren.

I spent a lot of time rehabbing, practicing my speech and generally trying to get better.

Every day is a bit better.
