Jill Bolte Taylor got a research opportunity few brain scientists would wish for: She had a massive stroke, and watched as her brain functions – motion, speech, self-awareness – shut down one by one.
This is an astonishing story of a remarkable woman!

Hey Kylen, she is an amazing woman
Have you heard her sing the brain song?
Jill Bolte Taylor’s book is both life changing and life affirming. Her gift to us all is sharing her experiences and giving us the courage to look beyond the event or perceived result in others. Truly amazing.
I personally have experienced a “short circuiting” left hemisphere and found this to be moving and very inspiring. Thank you for sharing!
