She is such a positive person. Everyone needs the same energy.
It's easy to be positive when you don't have the brain power to think normally.
lmao@@fairfeatherfiend
It is true. I had a part of what she is saying. In worst days you can't even complete a sentence. Thank God sometimes that you have health, people. GL
@@fairfeatherfiendlol
As a cynical follower of the world , she gives me good vibes
I hope this never happens again to her. And I'm just grateful she's ok and be able to live life.
I don't think it could! She'd be dead
Me too 🥺❤️
this will happen again to her if keeps taking the Fauci Ouchies
@@habazlambazazathe6th989 Enough with that! I guess your idea of a credible doctor is that fraud Raymond Oz.
@@habazlambazazathe6th989
Wondering if she took them.
honestly I think it’s less “it’s amazing how little of our brains we use” and more “it’s amazing the level of elasticity the brain has even in adulthood”. a lot of times, surviving sections of the brain will repurpose themselves to complete the necessary tasks, even if it’s a minuscule amount in comparison. of course it does depend on the severity of the injury and where it happened, but that’s why victims of strokes and such can usually regain at least some if not all of whatever they lost (movement, speech, etc)
We use 100 percent of our brains. Using only part of our brain is a myth
*plasticity
@@jet100a yeah, I know, that’s what I’m meaning. hence disagreeing with her comment
@@fairlyadorablepancreas3746 that’s right, thank u. I knew elasticity wasnt really right but I couldnt think of the correct word lmao
Yeah, for real. I HAAAATE the myth of "we only use x% of our brains". No, evolution doesn't really like spending massive amounts of energy on nothing for millions of years.
The myth started with early brain scans only showing a few parts of the brain lighting up, but it turns out we don't use a lot of brain power while lying down in a scanner being told to be perfectly still. We use all of our brain basically every day, it is just that different parts are for different tasks.
The mother of dragons...just as magical in real life. She is awesome! I salute to her accomplishments, being able to recover not only physically but mentally as well❤
An excellent comparison!
Being a multimillionaire sure doesnt have an effect I'm sure.
I’m just so glad she can still speak and communicate. She’s so young omg.
She survived basically because she was so young when it happened.
Rip
Sorry my English sucks
Hi.
(sorry for my english)
did i miss something or why are 2 people excusing themselfes for not being able to speak english well,
when they both didnt say anything?
wtf is happening here
Emilia just radiates positivity and genuine kindness. She has the heartiest laugh. I really do feel like she appreciates every second she's still alive after her two close calls with death.
Dude he burned whole King's Landing, innocent kids and women's including.
@@Theydas she
@@Theydas Um, that was a character she played.
@@Theydas are you for real lmao
@@beyzaercan3077 are you for real 🤨
She's immensely gorgeous and seems like such a nice person, I hope she doesn't suffer any more of these terrible traumas
She shows deep courage and the will to have as much as is possible. Deepest best wishes for her life
what's courageous in that?
@@different_stuffsurviving the two aneurism she had?!?!
I'd say not being scarred and letting trauma dictate her response is courageous. But as someone with a chronic illness it really just becomes your new normal.
I'm not sure what is more remarkable, that she lived through it or that she can discuss it with humor and hope. Truly inspirational.
The tens of millions of dollars and assured medical cover for life probably softens the blow
@@greyghost3497 yeah she has money so what? It hurts you doesn't it lol. If you're so jealous get a better job or... get any job. You'll get a lot of hate as well. Hating someone rich instead of taking care of your own life yeah congratulations. Get a life please.
@@oliviapetrova9933 wow, that’s quite the reaction there kiddo. You kinda missed the point though didn’t you, and went straight to the old labels eh. Because anyone who isn’t sycophantically showering praise must be a “hater” and jealous, rather than pointing out that her wealth likely contributes to her still being alive and happy about it. Show me someone in her situation who’s broke and can’t afford medical care and still has the same outlook on life, then we can talk. Also, maybe give the Red Bull a rest 🤣
it happens when you have money to get the best Medical Treatment.
u guys know right? this happened a decade ago...
The progress that's been made with treating subarachnoid haemorrhages in the last 30 years, 40 even, is incredible. My mother died in 1992 after a haemorrhage, and a couple of years later a hero of mine, Davie Cooper also passed away from one. Clarke's strength of character shouldn't be discounted either, to survive two is fantastic. Tough woman.
Extremely sorry for your loss.
@@Zeegoku1007 thank you. Much appreciated.
What causes that to happen?
@@bigthunder7002 Aneurysm can form when a person has a bunch of coinciding risk factors (high blood pressure, weak blood vessel walls, plaque formation in blood vessels and etc…). Haemorrhages can occur when these aneurysm eventually rupture, but depending on the site and size of the aneurysm, the haemorrhage can have different consequences. For example, if it occurs in the subarachnoid space like OP mentions, it is as dangerous as it can possibly get and needs urgent care.
So medically is getting better? It’s like that with cirrhosis. My Uncle died from it 20yrs ago but now they made leaps on how to treat it.
I have so much respect for her. The fact that she survived this and stays radiant and positive speaks volumes. I met her and we talked about GoTh a few times. She was always kind and full of laughter. One of the nicest celebs I've met.
I think this is why she always seems so full of life and energy. She knows how much a gift her life is and is very happy to live it.
Simone Gertz
Right the both of you.
This makes me see her in a different perspective. No wonder she has that much positivity, she literarry is glad living every day of her life
That's her default personality.
Never seen literally spelled this way. Idk why people turn off autocorrect lol
My autocorrect makes my normal words and sentences ridiculous. It changes correct words for random ones that don't make sense....simple words like "for" will be changed to "got," as an example. Despite its name, it doesn't always correct. Btw, in that sentence, it tried to give me a possessive "it's."
@Nunya Bidness hope you never have to
"And acceptance is the answer to all my troubles today." It takes courage to speak out about things like this, thank you Ms. Clarke!
I didn't hear her say that. When does she say that line.
@@blingbling2841 say what? I wasn't quoting her, I was quoting a book. “Acceptance is the answer to all my problems today. When I am disturbed, it is because I find some person, place, thing or situation-some fact of my life-unacceptable to me, and I can find no serenity until I accept that person, place, thing or situation as being exactly the way it is supposed to be at this moment." Is the full passage.
Is there any doubt that in order for learning how to do something to have taken place, one must live in a universe where one has "finished the job" properly (and that if one has realized that one has done any part of the job incorrectly, that one's "new knowledge" is on one's "external drive" instead of one's "local drive", and is therefore not part of "Program Files", and cannot be copied and pasted to "Program Files" or actually installed in any way)? she doesn't need acceptance, she needs a nation
And $$$
She's talking about a brain surgery, not about surviving WW2. Drinking your starbucks latte hot must be the most courageous thing in the world for you.
It's her ATTITUDE that makes the whole difference. She is absolutely down to Earth and positive. Love her.
On this day 25yrs ago, my Mother died aged just 54 of a brain haemorrhage. Emilia's courage and bravery astonishes me, and I am beyond pleased that anyone at all survives this often instant demise. To anyone reading this that has gone through anything like this. I'm so glad you are still here too.
My mother died 11 years ago aged 49 from the same…
@@berlimett My respects Leo.
Weirdly relatable...."This is the brain you have" is something I tell myself a lot as an autistic person.
I lost my beloved cousin Oscar to a brain aneurysm when he was just 18. He died on the spot, some people even refused to help him when he collapsed after having a coffee because they thought he was drunk. This really hit home, so yes, she’s been really lucky. I miss my cousin to this day. He was too good for this world.
I’m so sorry for your loss xx
So sorry ❤
Sorry to hear that :/
yea the most terrifying thing about aneurysm is that people won't even know they have one close to rapturing, they can just drop dead at any moment. scarier than cancer imo
That's terrible. Also people thought he was drunk so they didn't help him? If I think someone is drunk and I watched them collapse helping them would be my first thought :/
God bless you. No one would ever know you had 2 strokes at such a young age. I did too at age 14. Almost 70 now and though I've had a couple of deficiencies over the decades, I feel fine. Just keep on going and build on what you have. You're still young and beautiful so the world is yours for the taking, if you want it. Again, God bless!🙏
@@sparklesparklesparkle6318 it’s not too late to change. Think of what you’re going to do from the other person’s perspective before doing it
She's such a sweet and innocent person. Awful that she's had to go through that.
@Nunya Bidness just get out bro
@Nunya Bidness What does her acting in a TV show have to do with anything?
@Nunya Bidness foh MAGAt.
This is astounding! I've also had two brain aneurysms and one of them was a subarachnoid hemorrhage, too! The doctors also told me, that it was a miracle that I can talk and that I have no visible brain damage! I'm amazed at the similarities! And she's right. It changes your whole perspective on the world. Since then, I've been living my life in a much fuller way, than I ever did before my two brushes with death.
Wish you the very best in your life :=")!
Hope it won't happen to you again
how do you live your life now? what is the big difference you've made?
God bless
Hopefully you don't also believe that we don't use a significant amount of our brains.
"It just kind of shows how little of our brains we actually use," - Actually, it shows how resilient and adaptive the brain is. If, for example, you lose a finger, the parts of your brain that feel that finger, that move that finger, that sense where that finger is, all get remapped to existing areas of the hand near that finger and those areas near where that finger was, become more sensitive because they now have a more brain-power devoted to them.
Back in the late 90s, they did a study where they took a kitten, shortly after birth, disconnected the optic nerve and instead of running it to the visual cortex, rerouted it (part of it, not all of it, because that isn't feasible) to the audio cortex.
So the eyes were connected to the hearing center. While the cat didn't have great vision, it still had vision. The brain was able to adapt.
Her brain simply reroutes things and stores stuff in different areas, to make up for the areas that are now dead. I'd also point out all the people who have had HUGE portions of their brains removed and are still very functional.
To be clear, if you remove certain areas in certain people, it just needs to be a few crucial neurons, that can be the end. But if, by chance, the damage misses all the really vital stuff, the brain can adapt.
What if it's like a warehouse for neurons, unless there's a significant impact to the crucial areas you're good.
It's basically soft tissue, like fat and protein, brain sure is a versatile evolutionary composition.
So true! It's a myth that we only use one part of our brain. We actually use all of it, every part has a function. But as you say, the brain is extremely good at adapting. Though she is quite lucky, as from what I've seen working at a traumatic brain injury rehabilitation unit some bleeds result in serious reduction in both motor and cognitive function.
Thank you for writing this comment cause is it's misguided to suggest we don't use most of our brains. It's a wonderful story and I'm sure it was just an offhand comment for Emilia so not a big deal
I stopped reading half way through the comment. Couldn't stomach the Frankenstein approach. Poor kitten ☹
Poor kitten!! That’s just unethical abuse
Love love love Emilia, so thankful she’s still here with us ❤
Terrifying to think that this can happen to anyone of us, and we'd have no warning. Really makes one appreciate the luck of having good health.
I'm in awe of her strength and courage to share this and bring awareness all while still working and smiling.
I've had multiple bowel surgeries, are you in awe of my strength?
@@MrNickcrush I am in awe of your strength!
@@MrNickcrush are you seriously comapring bowel surgery with brain surgery? Aneurysms and brain surgery is 100x more life threatening than bowel surgery 😆
@@MrNickcrush Hey man. Glad youre still kickin. Keep on livin!
@Noel You cannot survive without a bowel you fool.
She's just so... I don't know. Intoxicating? Her personality, outlook, beauty, etc. She's someone I never get tired of seeing or hearing. I hope she lives a long happy life.
I Second That! She Is Very Intoxicating. It's To Bad Us "Regular Folk" Would Never Be Able To Try And Make Her Laugh Like That In Person... Her Energy/Spirt Is So Amazing. I'm Glade She Is Still Alive And Able To Do What She Loves.
Your description of her is exactly what scares me a little lol. Besides, she blinks so little and keeps near constant eye contact with the interviewer. Kinda off-putting lol
@@s.nithinutham5972 I wish you have 1000th of her positivity. But I’m just an anonymous stranger on the internet.
@@charlesbronson2926 lol I didn't say anything bad about her positivity. She still going strong after all this brain surgery. Props to her. That's admirable. But the no blink constant eye contact while talking is sorta weird at least for me 😅
Everything about her is appealing, it's true
My partner of nine years had a sub arachnoid hemorrhage in November of last year. It was so scary and we weren't even sure if she was going to make it as we live an hour and half away from the closest hospital. Miraculously she managed to pull through with the help of an incredible medical team who looked after her every step of the way. She's now doing fantastic with no lasting complications so to hear this about Emilia is incredible. For her to survive this and still be alive and functional is amazing. My heart goes out to her and wouldn't ever wish a SAH on anybody.
She is profoundly fortunate. My adopted daughter died of that type of aneurysm at age 27. I'm very glad that she survived not just one, but two and a followup surgery. She also apparently appreciates her life all the more. Good for her!!!!!
She is such a beautiful person inside and out, she’s a literal walking, talking, miracle. She deserves everything good in this world.
Alright relax
Slow down.
My dad survived Aneurysm and he completely changed as a person. Complete opposite of who he was before stroke. With ailments in every part of his body, situation keeps worsening. I really wish Emilia lives a wonderful life. ❤️
My dad had a stroke in 2011 and he could speak and everything but was no longer coordinated enough to ride his Harleys which had him so depressed that he spent the next seven years drinking himself to death.
Yeah, her saying that this shows how little of our brains we use is absolutely ridiculous.
@@nuclearcatbaby1131 🫂
It depends on the area of brain affected, and how much damage.
@@nuclearcatbaby1131 I'm so very sorry. 💐
Man, so much respect to her. She's not just a strong character in a tv show but in real life as well. :)
I also suffered a stroke at 24,
Absolutely turned its my life on its head.
My doctors said I was within a few hours of them not being able to do anything to help me (and me dying).
I can now talk, walk, and carry on like normal, but it was a horrible process and I'm glad to see a story about someone else who survived this.
This really breaks my heart. I haven't seen GoT but I have seen many of her interviews and guest appearances. Her beauty is captivating and her personality is like a thousand teddy bears and cotton candy. And while going through all of this she is still stepping up by doing charitable work and speaking on the condition.
She’s amazing in this show, the show itself is also
Amazing. Sadly the two directors cut and run and ruined the entire ending.
Happy she's still with us and helping however she can. I hope she suffers no more complications.
@@nsierra2297 woah why would they do that
@@VoVina111- All Game of Thrones seasonal content is interconnected. A bulk of fans since S1:E1. Felt like plot lines of season 7, and for sure 8 were rushed. Visuals are still great. Acting too. But that conclusion is lackluster. It was very possibly arrogance from the massive success. Directors took a smug route. Especially when HBO supported them for more content.
@@empyrean196 ohh but the directors didn't abandon the show in the last season? Thats how I understood the other person's comment but I guess I misunderstood
She has that smile where her whole face smiles. Seems like a lovely person. Hope she catches early any new growths and lives a decent life.
really glad she is doing okay even after all of that. she always seems so incredibly positive and kind from all i have seen of her. very inspiring.
Literally one of my favorite actresses to watch. The fact that she went through that and is still alive today is nothing short of a miracle. So glad she’s still alive and able to keep going. I give lots of love and hope for her. 💕❤️
A friend lost his wife to an aneurysm. She had come home from doing the weekly grocery shop, brought their 2 little ones into the house, went back out to the car to start bringing in the bags into the house and ... just dropped. No warning signs, no previous issues. Just gone in an instant. Luckily this did not happen while she was driving. Emilia's recovery is nothing short of a miracle
I’m sure the millions of dollars at her disposal to help with her medical care helps a lot also.
@@gr8latino Her first aneurysm was before season 1 of game of thrones was released so i’m sure she never had millions. Also, it is still a miracle since so many die before even reaching the hospital.
@@gr8latino But of course, millions of dollars helps with health issues, no doubt.
Can only imagine what she must’ve been through. I’ve had brain hemorrhage and brain swelling and that alone made me feel like a different person and I became highly irrational. You could tell me to do anything and I would do it. I would sleep 5 hours a day durin the day and couldn’t remember anything. Scariest moment of my life and to have two aneurysms within a couple of years is mind blowing. I hope she will be alright in the future to come.
Very glad that you came out on the other side!!!
She’s amazing! Emilia you have a special place in my heart. It’s scary to come face to face with the reaper and walk out the other side and you’ve done it again and still have your wits and grace. You amaze me. Much love praying you have had your last heath scare!
Truly a strong woman and so inspiring. Giving positive vibes wherever she is. Much respect and love ❤❤❤
She has such a positive bubbly attitude about the whole thing, it's very admirable. She's a remarkable young woman.
this happed literally a decade ago wtf
@@itsnotevenmyfinalform It *started* a decade ago, she went through it for several years.
@@itsnotevenmyfinalform it's almost as if it still affects her life and health every day and always will
@@doom3798 So why should 'I' care?
She shoupd not have disclosed this to public anyway, there is a thing called doctor-patient confidentiality.
Selling your diseases is a major attention-seeking move. Specially when you are not being featured in a major project for a while. And it affects your standard of living which you built up during the high fame time, during which she never disclosed this, cause 'it might not look good on her'. And now after buring through her GOT cheques, now she needs another producer to notice her.
@@doom3798 How is she any different from a beggar? Who shouts it's medical problems in the middle of the road, expecting someone to notice him and give him some change?
This is her begging for SOME attention. That's all i can make sense out of it.
Wow I had no idea she went through all of that. It speaks volumes of character to talk about it personally. What a strong person.
Same thing happened to me. My first brain bleed happened when I was 11, my second happened when the surgeon was saving my life from the first, my third happened when I was 26. For me it kinda killed my hopes for a acting career, but for a well known performer like her to be open on her condition like that emboldens me.
Love her personality. Funny, humorous, humble, great actress, nice human being.
pretty too
She's downright adorable to boot.
I just suffered from the same type of hemorrhage. It came outta nowhere. I had migraines which I don’t get and I walked around and worked with my head bleeding for a week. A coworker saw my face and me go to ER. Glad I listened to her. The fluid went down into my spine which caused severe back pain. I recovered fully thankfully. I’m still photosensitive and have some short term memory loss but I’m happy to be alive!!!
So happy you came out on the other side okay! Mine was unruptured but had a teeny tiny leak and just that pain alone? I can't imagine how much pain you must have been in walking around with that! So, so happy that you're here to comment your experience 💌
did you take the Fauci Ouchie sh0ts??
@@habazlambazazathe6th989 did you eat your dirt breakfast this morning?
@@neverescence thank you and same to you glad you’re still here
@@habazlambazazathe6th989 unfortunately for work and I believe that is the cause though my drs disagree 🙄 I had it exactly 6 months before the aneurysm
E.C. is Incredibly lucky to have a)survived and b)survived with her cognitive abilities intact. I appreciate E.C.'s attitude...of radical acceptance. Not building hypothetical lives had the aneurysms not occured may have helped E.C. resilience.
I already knew that she is a beautiful and talented actress and has a strong sense of humor but how strong she is and handles her history of aneurysms so gracefully is amazing!
Best of health and luck to you Emilia!
What a beautiful, talented and precious miracle you are Emilia. I hope you live each day as a precious gift.
Watching this is so crazy to me - I remember watching older interviews talking about her issues years back and not really remembering what happened to her until watching this video. I'm 23 and just had an unruptured brain aneurysm (found because it leaked one night in February) stented in May. After learning all about them, she really is so lucky to have survived a hemorrhage. My neurosurgeon told me that if there's a rupture, off the bat the survival rate is between 30-50%. 80% of people who survive are permanently disabled. I'm so happy to see her on the other side of things. My surgery was the same as hers just without the coil and only the stent and I ended up bleeding out from my groin where they put the catheter and had to get emergency surgery right after (I just moved wrong after but the brain surgery itself went fine). Life is a precious, rare thing.
Thank you for sharing your story, and I'm glad you're alright.
@@AlerieHightower oh wow thank you so much! I'm pretty much all better now. A few permanent things like nerve damage in my leg and visual things on the side I had the stent put in but other than that I'm 100% recovered! Thank you so much for your kind words!
Happy to hear that you're still here 💛
You didn’t have any mRNA or adenovirus vector vaccines did you?
@@nuclearcatbaby1131 not sure what that would be. I got all of the chicken pox and tetanus and whatever all of those vaccines were you get when you were a kid. This would've been forming for quite a few years before covid was a thing because of the shaking I had in my hand that was a symptom of it so it was probably at least since like 2015-2016 that it started forming since that's when I started noticing that one hand being really shaky compared to the other. I don't think I ever got the HPV vaccine or anything (wanted to but just kept forgetting about it). No idea what other vaccines I've gotten
I love her, she’s just so real. Bless her.
I love her. When she smiles it goes all the way to the top of her head. Beautiful really
Wow this makes you humble as you hear here speak like that and thinking what she went through. I did'nt know this and it was also during the series when it happened again. She is just so strong. Hope she will not encounter it anymore and live a healthy long and happy life. She deserves it! Tough young lady!
I had this as well in 2020. It was the scariest two weeks in my life so far. Everybody (including the doctors) tell you constantly how lucky you are.
Even after the first year the MRI scan still showed some minuscule amount of blood in my brain. It's terrifying just talking about it again.
Hope Emilia is still OK. I can definitely understand what she feels on a daily basis.
I'm glad you are ok. Take care of yourself !
@@lenabillare4443 Good so far! Thanks a lot for the kind wishes :)
Actually this has been happening a lot to people who take the jab
Glad you’re still here with us.
To know who is making this woman have this happening to her you all should go look up D o n a l d m a r s h a l l interview to know about the corruption in politics and everything else going on in the world right now and who is to blame and also look up NSA whistleblower D 3 n n i s M 0 n t g o m e r y for how they make anyone against them look like pedos also LT. G3n3ral mcIn3rn3y on voting fr@ud how these Illumiturds stole the election & look up gangstalking on the crimes of targeting individuals that talk about the facts or truth shunning them wherever they go. Put e's where the 3's are. To know who and what these pos's are trying to slander those against their agenda and kill them off.
The quote about "how little" of our brains we use though 😔 just incredibly false. The fact that she's been able to recover so well is proof how hard the whole brain works to keep us together!
Well said
Yeah. I personally think think that we don't use our minds to the full capacity is true. We use all of our minds, not always simultaneously, but also not to it's fullest capacity. If you disagree with me, please tell me your thoughts on our incredible minds.
Well, we use every part of our brain, but not at 100% force. In a way, just like we don't use our muscles at 100% capacity (because it would damage the body). Anyways, regarding the brain stuff, I think the brain is purposefully designed this way because we wouldn't able to support more big think power. The brain consumes 40% of our energy or so and increasing the activity of our brain will most likely come with negatives such as being mentally tired all the time, sleepy, increased need for food, etc. Thinking hard is exhausting, imagine you do it 24/7. But I don't know for sure, ofc, since I didn't study brain science.
Just some 2 cents of mine.
I caught that as well. Since she actually started a charity for people with brain injuries, I'm more willing to let it slide.
I think she meant it as look how little we need to use our brains because she’s missing a lot but is still able to talk, function, and live her life.
Even after such a delicate surgery she has the strength to smile and go on. I would never be able to do that. She ls such a strong (and beautiful) woman. ❤️
Amazing, she gives me hope. Our brains are phenomenal and we can overcome many things.
As a recipient of a traumatic brain injury, thanks to a drunk driver, and having lost about 6% of my brain I can relate. It dramatically changed my personality and how I reacted to stimulus.
She seems such a nice person, sad people like this have to go through this.
Someone in the comments said her personality is like a thousand teddy bears and cotton candy..and i totallly agree. ❣️
giving what she has been through, such a lovely genuine person and very talented as well..
I get it sister. Having survived a TBI 20 yrs ago. Doctor said I was lucky I could still tie my own shoes. It was a long process a few yrs.
Emilia is such a talented actress, I hope she returns as Qi’ra from Solo: A Star Wars Story
I'm sure she would rather play other roles besides something that was in a not so well received Disney film. It's like hoping she plays Sarah Connor again.
my mom had two aneurysm’s and she survived it and I’m so thankful for that because I wouldn’t have a mother because it happened before I was born or it happened when I was born I don’t know. I’m happy that Emilia Clarke and my mom survived their aneurysms so thankful for having my mom in my life and getting to hear Emilia Clarke and see her instagram posts she makes me joyful. but my mom makes me more joyful someone I can actually talk to because Emilia probably wouldn’t respond to me on the internet idk but I do think about her and have a photo of her from a magazine and get to see her on CZcams and instagram of her life instead of a photo.
Good for her, I hope she never loses her smile, laugh and joy.
I commend her for talking about this. As someone with Epilepsy, I know it can be really hard to tell people there's anything wrong with your brain. There's lots of stigma and people like to make assumptions/misunderstand.
Yes, hidden disabilities are often worse than the visible ones
its maybe more in your head than others; ive never seen anyone look down on anyone for anything like this in my daily life, maybe on a tv show or something...
@@DoobiusPiff ive got mental illness and trust me it makes no one want to be around me. such is life whatever at least im not short.
I was a regular visitor on a neuro ward and it really was an eye opener. Many folks that you might write off an a weirdo or a nutter, may have actually just had a brain injury in the past or a cardiac event.
If I could pick a super power it would be to heal people of these injuries.
@@DoobiusPiff you may be well-meaning, but your comment may be unhelpful to people who deal with it first-hand as it dismisses their experiences. trust me, there are plenty of people who either don’t care about others’ feelings or have no clue about hidden disabilities, or both
I had no idea she went through that. Hardships always make us stronger and I love that she’s sharing a glimpse I to the lessons she’s learned 💕
Wow! I am so sorry you went through that, but I must say, you've used it to raise awareness and help! Bless you ❤!
Great inspiration, don't worry about things that are out of your control, don't let it stop u from doing what u love and passionate about
She is the epitome of living your life in the moment you are in. An inspiration to us all.💟
Aw man, I used to work in the emergency department (nurse) and this reminds me of a young 21 yr old kid we had come in through EMS. He was unresponsive and EMS and some other people thought he was zonked out on drugs. His girlfriend was with him and said he was complaining of a ringing noise and then he threw up. I knew immediately that it was a ruptured aneurysm. I asked the doctor to intubate him right away to protect his airway and when we got him to CT we realized there was nothing we could do. Poor kid didn’t make it. It was so sad.
So sad others thought it was drugs just because he was young 😭😭 I'm so glad you made the right call but yeh so sad he didnt make it in the end 😭 you really have to advocate for your health or others wont believe you :((
Thank you for sharing, am 2 yrs out from my first, you are an inspiration, same me; just have been through stuff i wouldn't wish on anyone and especially not again..
My goodness, what a brave, talented and beautiful person!😊
She's a lovely young woman. Great to see her positive attitude about it all, and that she was able to live life again. My aunt had an aneurysm in her early late 30s/early 40s and she was in a coma, and when she awoke, she's wasn't able to walk, but was able to speak, but not at the same rate.
This story reminds me to stay strong and live life with my disability mentally. And why she have a special place in my heart, I'm a big fan of her work. Such a inspiring story of each people struggles and still strong and a reminder that we are not alone. 😊
What an amazing person! Best of luck! Looking forward to all your future projects!
She is a truly inspirational person. Cheery and bright, what a great lass.
"... because what you have now is great! So let's work with that."
That may be just about the most positive, plucky, indefatigable spirit on display I have ever witnessed.
I cannot but love this girl, as though she were a daughter of my own!
this happened fkn a decade ago?
For me personally, the thought of losing any of my brain is terrifying. I'm even afraid to touch keys too much because so many of them leach lead which kills brain cells. I want to be old and still have all of my marbles.
I want to still be able to program computers when I'm 70, because I'm probably never going to have enough to retire the way this economy is going.
If you are that paranoid that you won’t even touch keys ….. then I think you are already missing some of your marbles. 😬😂
bro lead is banned
Sometimes you don't realise how such successful people suffer behind the limelight. What an inspiration she is. Full respect.
I love Emilia Clarke!! She always comes across as being super genuine and has a great sense of humour. And those eyebrows though! They're next level expressive!!!
I just watched her acting live in London in “the seagull” and she was stellar! What a beautiful human, she can overcome so much ❤
I'm not even sure it's about how "little" of the brain you use, it's really more about how adaptable, efficient and resilient brains are. Just like her attitude, you find a way forward and go for it, this is all we have and it's miraculous.
Also she’s famous and has money helps. Doctors went the extra mile to save her. I’m not hating on my wife, but I am kind of with the doctors.
@@Aristocratic13 It's actually been shown that VIP treatment in hospitals leads to worse outcomes.
She really does have one of the most powerful and infectious smiles I have ever seen. Just seems like the loveliest person on the planet.
Emilia is a survivor! Nothing but mad respect for her.
My mom survived a ruptured brain aneurysm about 25 years ago. It happened when she was home alone. She called my dad who called 911. They took her to 2 hospitals before she could even be treated. Her being alive today is a pure miracle. Never doubt the recovery time of something like it.
This woman is extraordinary! To go through this ordeal and continue with the positivity that she has is admirable. 💗 Love for life 💖
I never knew that about Emilia what an extraordinary woman she is full respect for her positivity 🙏
The human body is truly amazing, it sees the parts missing and just diverts everything to the functional left-over parts and just continues operation without any major side effects.
She was going through all this while working so hard for us to love her character. She is beautiful inside and out and deserves all the happiness in the world
I can't say enough how much I freaking adore her bubbly and infectious personality. God bless her and all of us. We truly do not know when our time is up and how lucky most people we are able to live out their lives in relatively good health, many many people don't not have that luxury 💔
Man, what a beautiful woman! Anyone who laughs and smiles like that is someone you want to keep around! Amazing perspective, as well. I could’ve imagine having faced something that serious at 24!
Such a positive outlook! Admirable.
1:30 It doesn't show "how little of our brain we actually use," it shows how incredible and resilient our brain is. It is capable of creatively compensating for loss, building new connections and finding new ways to do things. The brain is amazing and we use every bit of it.
its also capable of not doing that lol.
She is one of the very few miracles out there experiencing this.
You’re right on the first bit but we definitely do not use as much of our brains as you’re implying.
@Trinity M It’s not “feeling the need to correct everyone” if it’s stating a fact, though. We do use almost every part of the brain. While some parts are used far less or for more niche things, that doesn’t mean they aren’t used at all, especially when it comes to how different parts of the brain interact with one another. Even most simple activities require almost all parts of the brain to be active.
Throwing a ball is a good example; to scratch the surface it involves:
-motor skills(picking up the ball, holding the ball, keeping balance, physically throwing the ball, spatial awareness)
-decision making(to throw it in the first place, how to do so, where to throw it, when)
-sensory processing assuming normal functionality(identifying it is a ball, comprehending the appearance, texture, weight, etc of the ball, maybe also sound, perhaps taste and smell in cases such as a toddler playing with a new toy)
-many other miscellaneous things(reasoning leading to throwing the ball, expectations of what will happen and/or possible consequences, emotions being experienced prompting/during the ball throw, thoughts before/while throwing the ball, environmental and social awareness)
-basic bodily functions controlled by the brain unconsciously(heartbeat, breathing, blinking, sensory processing unrelated to intentional interaction, hormones and other chemical signals, energy management, regulating blood flow to the arm(s), etc)
Now consider the above if the scenario is an individual playing catch with someone and holding a conversation with that other person. Or driving and listening to the radio. Or getting tutoring. It’s easy to generalize such things as only using a few parts of the brain, but that’s because we generally don’t consider just how much goes into doing things. Me typing this comment, I made the decision to do it, I read and comprehended not just what you said but what I am typing as well, I saw my screen and felt it and heard my fingers tapping and smelled food being burnt downstairs, I had to move my arms and fingers to tap the letters to spell out the words to create sentences to get a message across following English syntax, because I read something and felt an emotion towards it and wanted to give my own input, and those are just the conscious aspects of this one simple activity.
There is no activity that requires consciousness but doesn’t use most of the brain. Humans speak because we feel or believe things and want to share that with others; we have experiences that influence how we think and why we react a certain way to a certain thing, or how and why we phrase thoughts in a particular way; our brain controls not just psychological activities but the physical parts of our bodies that let us vocalize in a comprehensible manner, and experience the world so as to know what to respond to. It is true that much of the brain isn’t absolutely required for survival, and that it can cope with losing surprisingly large portions. However being able to live without something doesn’t make it unimportant, or else I’m sure people would feel very different about lobotomies.
@Trinity M No, she is not correct. We use all of our brain. If we didn't then far fewer people would be affected by brain injuries and our bodies would not dedicate so many resources to the entire brain. This's to completely leave aside all of the scans that show otherwise.
Stop feeling the need to correct anyone if you cannot even be bothered to do a cursory google search, professor.
@@lol-ot4pn By and large it isn't. There are going to be exceptions but those are incredibly rare. This is aside from the fact that she might have less obvious issues from missing part of her brain. It doesn't have to be a loss of motor skills.
Several aneurysms later and she's still absolutely adorable.
You are such a beautiful person Emilia , both inside and out.
She has a rare beauty that makes it so you cant look away. And then she speaks and it just magnifies the effect.
Good to see she has met her health challenges with such good humor.
Wow, talk about feeling Terrified, Fascinated, and Blessed at the same time. Good Heavens, life is FULL of miracles.
I had a teacher in high-school who had an aneurysm during a class. The students who had her before said she was vastly different after the aneurysm. She was more irritable and less steady on her feet. She was still able to talk and walk but she wasn't understandably able to dance as well.
The brain is a fascinating organ and we are always discovering new things about it.
One of my best friends had several aneurysms at once over a decade ago. He got very lucky in that it did cause him major issues, though his short term memory suffered a lot. However, personality wise, for a very long time he was far more naive and he also suffered balance issues - though these have improved with time. It's a shame, as he used to do gymnastics and MMA and is in sheer disbelief he was ever able to do flips and the like.
To know who is making this woman have this happening to her you all should go look up D o n a l d m a r s h a l l interview to know about the corruption in politics and everything else going on in the world right now and who is to blame and also look up NSA whistleblower D 3 n n i s M 0 n t g o m e r y for how they make anyone against them look like pedos also LT. G3n3ral mcIn3rn3y on voting fr@ud how these Illumiturds stole the election & look up gangstalking on the crimes of targeting individuals that talk about the facts or truth shunning them wherever they go. Put e's where the 3's are. To know who and what these pos's are trying to slander those against their agenda and kill them off.
I've always loved Emilia...beautiful face and an even more beautiful soul
Genuine,humble and talented. What an amazing woman.
