About This Item

Bucaramanga

This trackable is being placed to raise awareness of a condition called Aphasia. In November 2018 my brother had a severe stroke at the age of 56 which has left him with a debilitating condition called aphasia - he cannot speak, read, write or communicate with us. He cannot text, write sentences, draw pictures or use sign language. Prior to the stroke he was bilingual, fluent in both English and Spanish . Now he cannot speak in either language.  Although physically ok, his brain damage has left him with an inability to interact with people as he wants to, which is hugely frustrating for him. Progress is very very slow, and 8 months down the line from his stroke he is only able to say occasional words. We hope that in time and with constant speech therapy he will get to a stage where he can communcate with us. My brother's Partner is Columbian, and they had hoped to visit Columbia at some point together. As a result of the stroke my brother may never fly on an aeroplane again, and so I would like this travel bug to be his eyes to Columbia. Wherever he is on his journey, whether it be his starting point of Wiltshire, England, or Europe, or South America, or (hopefully) Columbia itself, please take a picture of your surroundings and post it with your log so that he can see sights that are otherwise lost to him. Thank you. 

Este rastreador se está colocando para aumentar la conciencia de una afección llamada afasia. En noviembre de 2018, mi hermano sufrió un derrame cerebral severo a la edad de 56 años que lo dejó con una afección debilitante llamada afasia: no puede hablar, leer, escribir ni comunicarse con nosotros. No puede enviar mensajes de texto, escribir oraciones, hacer dibujos o usar lenguaje de señas. Antes del accidente cerebrovascular, era bilingüe, hablaba español e inglés con fluidez. Ahora él no puede hablar en ninguno de los dos idiomas. Aunque está bien físicamente, su daño cerebral lo ha dejado con una incapacidad para interactuar con las personas como él quiere, lo que es muy frustrante para él. El progreso es muy lento, y 8 meses después de su golpe, solo puede decir palabras ocasionales. Esperamos que con el tiempo y con la terapia del habla constante llegue a una etapa en la que pueda comunicarse con nosotros. El compañero de mi hermano es colombiano, y habían esperado visitar Columbia en algún momento juntos. Como resultado del derrame cerebral, es posible que mi hermano nunca vuelva a volar en un avión, por lo que me gustaría que este error de viaje fuera su mirada hacia Columbia. Dondequiera que se encuentre en su viaje, ya sea su punto de partida de Wiltshire, Inglaterra, Europa, Sudamérica o, si es posible, el propio Columbia, tome una fotografía de sus alrededores y publíquela con su registro para que pueda ver. Miradas que de otra manera se le pierden. Gracias.
