Jill Bolte Taylor had a stroke, caused by AVM. It was in the left hemisphere of her brain.
As a neuroanatomist, she describes how it was to be cognizant of what was happening to her, and that she was also cognizant of switching over to her right hemisphere, when her left hemisphere was incapacitated.
She speaks movingly and lovingly about her experience. She found such peace, beauty and joy while in her right hemisphere, describing it as nirvana.
Her description touched me deeply.
