A friend of my daughter sent her this video on a stroke victim who has studied the brain and her experience of being out-of-the-body in another world and letting go of her Spirit and then lives to tell her story. This video is very powerful and shows how we are all connected in our energy field. My daughter wanted to share this with me - My daughter, Mary, had surgery on the pituitary in 2006, thyroid cancer, and a melonoma - and is very healthy now. This video was powerful for her to see.

Jill Bolte Taylor: My stroke of insight
Brain researcher Jill Bolte Taylor studied her own stroke as it happened -- and has become a powerful voice for brain recovery.
Why you should listen to her:
One morning, a blood vessel in Jill Bolte Taylor's brain exploded. As a brain scientist, she realized she had a ringside seat to her own stroke. She watched as her brain functions shut down one-by-one: motion, speech, memory, self-awareness ...
Amazed to find herself alive, Taylor spent eight years recovering her ability to think, walk, and talk. She has become a spokesperson for stroke recovery and for the possibility of coming back from brain injury stronger than before. In her case, although the stroke damaged the left side of her brain, her recovery unleashed a torrent of creative energy from her right. From her home base in Indiana, she now travels the country on behalf of the Harvard Brain Bank as the "Singin' Scientist."
"How many brain scientists have been able to study the brain from the inside out? I've gotten as much out of this experience of losing my left mind as I have in my entire academic career." Jill Bolte Taylor
Thank you so much for sending it my way.
Love, Jan
