I go through all the details of trying to get myself help.
And that meant to me the one plan I could get between shifting back out into the euphoria of my right hemisphere where I'm just happy.
I'm just there and I don't have a plan.
Because it was just floating in a pool of blood.
It wasn't there for me.
Well, when you look at where my hemorrhage happened, it happened.
So language, the creation of sound and language, dog.
Dog is a sound.
It's going to come out of.
Broca's area.
And then Wernicke's area back here is going to place meaning on that sound.
And my hemorrhage was impacting this whole area.
And in there with language is numbers.
