Haud it a up in a hazy gold shimmered nostalgia
When the reality is iy a crashin white cauld
Memories are fragmentit noo

Helene Killmerโ€™s key findings about how parents with aphasia interact with children- asking a child to do something needs more linguistic resources than asking them to stop. #BASconf2025 @basaphasia.bsky.social

The City Gesture Checklist has been adapted and translated into Kannada by Chirag Girish Kiran in collaboration with his supervisors; this was a complex process with lots of considerations e.g., cultural differences, differences in dialect, vocabulary choice #BASconf25
