My friend Jennifer Holmes (Danger angel) posted this link to an incredible lecture from Neuroanatomist Jill Bolte Taylor describing a stroke from the inside out.

"Neuroanatomist Jill Bolte Taylor had an opportunity few brain scientists would wish for: One morning, she realized she was having a massive stroke. As it happened -- as she felt her brain functions slip away one by one, speech, movement, understanding -- she studied and remembered every moment. This is a powerful story about how our brains define us and connect us to the world and to one another."
