Jill Bolte Taylor: My stroke of insight

[bedolaga]

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.

This looks really interesting to me, but this site for some reason is difficult to load. Not the first time I have tried either. I will read the printed transcript though.
