And I told him once we were five minutes away that I don't know how long I'm going to stay lucid.

So you have to make sure they scan me, tell them I'm having the worst headache of my life.

You cannot leave me in a corner somewhere because I don't know how much longer I have.

And luckily, they got me into the CT scan.

They transported me to my alma mater, Albany Med.

I stayed there for almost three weeks in the ICU, three brain surgeries later.

And I'm a living miracle, honestly.

But I attribute a lot of that to the fight or flight, the stress, the rage, everything that is in my mind when I feel something's not going right.

or somebody wronged me.

Somebody wronged me.

I mean, it's not only that, but it has a lot to do with that.

Nothing terrible.

Just very, you know, being a firstborn,

Asian girl in a family, I was basically a third parent, but an invisible third parent.

And there was a lot of pressure put on me.

I do a lot of work with women that are from my culture, and I see this a lot, which is another reason I was going to ask.

This is culturally related because there's a lot of women that harbor

this kind of rage and anger but it's pent up from years of you know strict discipline high standards and really just not being able to speak your mind i think so you've been repressed exactly all these years you've been repressed then you're shaking your head because you have to deal with that yes

I don't want to see my family go through what they went through those past three weeks in the in the ICU with my sons, our sons at my side.

And I just my health just means so much more than that boy.
