Blog Summary

This blog is centralized on the disorder of Dysphagia occurring after a stroke. It defines dysphagia, a difficulty with swallowing, and gives resources that tell about the signs, symptoms, and treatments. One post includes three website links that are beneficial to learning about dysphagia. Also, in another post, there are two online articles that contribute to learning about this disorder. Both posts, however, include a summary of each article or website and what I liked about each one. I posted two videos: one tells the story of a man with dysphagia and the other is about the VitalStim invention. I posted some pictures, also, to put dysphagia into an image form and add creativity.
