Abstract

We present three poems written from personal experience of living with primary progressive non-fluent aphasia (primary progressive apraxia of speech). The poems provide a window on this illness ‘from the inside’, and vividly illustrate how intellect and inner life may survive strikingly intact, even after speech is lost.
