TRANSCRIPT

Hey, what's going on. Hope all is well for you and your family. And about a while ago, I had a conversation with my nurse and my dad and I wanted to share with you. So in 2018, I had a serious stroke. Honestly, it was a regular day. I woke up, wrote in my journal, work myself out. I had my steam, had my smoothie trained. Three clients, had my breakfast, something went wrong. It's hard to describe it, but it really felt wrong. So I drove home, but I couldn't make it because of my arm and leg. So I parked and I walk home. So when I got home, I tried to open up my laptop and try to take a shower. And this is what happened.

I guess I was underground and paralyzed for five hours. Luckily Andrew came home. If Andrew didn't come home after work, I'd be dead. How I stood up from the chair? I don't know how I'm able to talk. I honestly don't know. So right here, I have a really big bruise on my brain. And the adopter said that I'm a miracle, but Hey, you watching this, honestly, I think you're a miracle as well. So 20, 19 winter and spring, I had about five or six falls, walking, cooking, doing my homework. And I felt every time I fell, I, I looked around and I thought maybe I tripped. I went to see friends, teachers, family, grocery shopping. And honestly, I, I didn't think anything of it. So in March, this is what happened. So first my blood went hard and I couldn't move because my whole arm, my leg was paralyzed and I couldn't breathe.

I, at this point I thought I had died. But then for whatever, he, then I walked up. What just happened? My arm and leg. Okay. My neck. And I'm like, what just happened? But I think I'm fine now. Just why the new dream, honestly, don't get it. But at least I'm alive. I called my doctor and I said, I think I'm fine. Can you, um, telling me what it is? So after we talked, my doctor said that I had a seizure. Wow. Could it happen again? She's like, well, we don't know, but you had a seizure. So when I went to the doctor, she checked my blood and she gave me a heart monitor. Um, I forget how long, but she said, I'm fine. That's in the past. Let's move on. So now maybe it had two or three seizures. And this time they gave me a brain cat scan, your blood is good.

Your heart's good. And your checkup is good. Two other dentist stroke, nothing tier. When they look at my files and they look at me, they say this one's tricky. They say, if anything, just make sure you go to the emergency room next time. So when I had another seizure is as we were waiting for the results, because I was so scared, anxious, and nervous. I said, from now on, I'm going to start using the drug to drug for me, it's a powerful weapon, two or three times a day. And it can do wonders for you buddy. And it's gratitude. There's some things that I can't do. But every day I try to focus and change my perspective on the thing that I can do. Um, I can feel sorry for myself, but when I stopped complaining and being frustrated, then I have more clarity. It's weird, but it really expands my thinking.

I tried to communicate with my mind and said, okay, I get it. I see what you're doing. But my family, my teachers and my doctors are amazing. I'm not going down that EMV. There's a lot of things that I wanted a future. And obviously it takes years. I'm not perfect. I make a lot of mistakes. Like a lot, like you watching this, I make a lot more mistakes than you, but Hey, do graduate to drug is something I'm truly happy for. I take it day by day, one step at a time when my body freezes out, I think about the amount of progress that I made and everyone has made to tell for me, gratitude is a great drug that would get you out of anywhere or anything that you're going through. Now, all my seizures, I try to stay positive. Her blood and checkup is good.

So after another CJ, they put me on an E G E G E J E G. They're located. They say nothing here. So reading, walking, talking, sleeping, watching TV constantly. It was really, really hard. Like I didn't know what to do. It felt free. I felt very weird for sure. I felt really bad for my family because Tara dealt with me all the time and I would do anything for them, but I just didn't know what to do or what should I do what I can't do, but I'm here. It's weird. But every time I went to see my doctor, I had a really bad dream about the skeleton. And the skeleton was say, you bet, listen to your doctor, or your ended up here with us. So every day I went to go see the skeleton and I'm like, yes, check, check, check, check, trust me.

I did everything the doctor says. So when the holiday came around, I started to skeleton where it hot. And I told my doctor, I'm like, Hey, can you take a picture of me? Just so I could. Um, just so I could exercise the demon exercise, the demon, I just, so I could, I guess, cut the demon off. So I had another seizure and I had a medic alert bracelet. You can see this RS, have it on just so I can make sure I do everything. And anything that the doctor says, knock on wood. That I'll be fine. So I have another heart monitor on and my blood heart and checkup was perfect. So I went to go see another doctor. And she showed me some seizure slides. And she says, which one do you think you have? And the whole time I'm like, so I said all, but I said, honestly, don't way because my other adopters, they gave me the right pills and the right strategies that make me who I am. So why am I telling you this? I had a nurse and doctors and they asked me, are you nervous? I be anxious on a scale of one to 10. Where are you? One da, how sad you are. And 10 being how happy and excited you are.

So I said at 12, they said to Wyatt, they're like, um, let me explain it again. And I'm like, no, no, no, I get it at 12. They're like, okay, explain yourself every time the ambulance comes and they stretch me into the emergency. And when I'm on my bed, there's one person here who asked to go for say duty. And then there's another person who I feel bad for everyone who's in hospital. But a kid who was also in the hospital, it also makes me cry by whenever you guys check, my blood is fine. When you guys check my heart, it's fine. And every time I get to walk away from me, I feel like I'm mad at 12th gratitude.

It's weird because Dan look at me weird, but I'm mostly looking at them weird. Who knows? Maybe I'm just skipping. So today you may be having a bad day or maybe you're trying to hurt an obstacle, but there's a lot of people that are much worse than myself and yourself. Um, matrix, matrix, matrix, matrix. Yeah, Keanu, Reeves. I think he says, you know, all of this could go away tomorrow. So whenever you're in your house, parents, grandparents, kids, boyfriend, girlfriend, wife, husband, toy, just friends to have you hugged a kiss. I honestly hope that you have a great day peace.
