hey it's hayley and my voice is a little gone i'm making this video

because i wanted to tell this story in my own words

of just where i've been at health wise for the last month

and kind of what i've gone through

and what the story is here i think as some people know a lot of people know

or you may not know i had like a very scary incident on march 10th basically i was

sitting at breakfast with my husband having a normal day normal conversation

and we were in the middle of talking

and all of a sudden i felt this really weird sensation

that kind of like traveled down my arm from my shoulder all the way down to my fingertips

and it made my fingertips feel really numb and weird

and i was sitting there

and i was kind of going like this trying to figure out like what the sensation was

and where it was coming from and justin was like are you okay

and i just didn't respond because i wasn't sure

and then he asked me again and um

when i went to respond i couldn't speak the right side

of my face started drooping i couldn't get a sentence out

everything was coming out like not even jumbled just like couldn't get any of the words out

so obviously immediately i thought i was having a stroke like

a full-blown stroke um he thought i was having a stroke

so right away he asked for somebody to please call 9-1-1

and get a doctor where we were there happened to be a doctor there a medic there who rushed over

and they started

asking me questions they started testing my arms definitely the scariest moment of my life i had

so many things running through my head the number one thing

being i'm having a stroke i'm really scared i don't know

what's going on i don't know why this is happening am i gonna have permanent issues from this like

so many things were running through my head

that um were really freaking me out

and really really really scaring me the facial drooping lasted for probably like 30 seconds

maybe a little bit more i honestly i wasn't i couldn't see myself of course

so i don't really know but i do know

that it like subsided fairly fast and so they were asking me questions

and do you know where you are do you know your name

and i knew all of the answers in my head

but as soon as i would try to say it it

i just could not get it out it was like my tongue

and my mouth just could not form the sentences and the responses.

So obviously that was really, really scary.

So I got up, I could walk totally fine.

At that point, it was really just like the speech issue.

Went back to my house,

waited for the ambulance to come.

At that point, speech started to come back a little bit,

got in the ambulance to the hospital.

There was actually a funny moment where they were calling into the hospital to explain what they were bringing in.

And they were like, I have a 30 year old female.

And I was like, I'm 25.

I had to make sure that they weren't going to age me five years for no reason, you know?

And I noticed that when the speech came back and I felt like I could talk,

as soon as my anxiety would like settle in or hit me,

it would make my speech feel funny again.

when I started feeling really scared and really anxious,

it just made everything worse.

But by the time I got to the emergency room,

I was pretty much back to normal,

could talk, wasn't having any issues with my face or my arm.

They did like the stroke checklist in the emergency room and I scored a zero.

I wasn't having any symptoms anymore.

So basically they did some scans and they were able to see

that I had suffered a small blood clot to my brain which they labeled and categorized as something called a TIA.

I'm gonna try to put the definitions of everything I talk about under here so that I don't butcher it.

Basically it's like having a mini stroke.

It definitely feels like having a stroke except my body was able to resolve it pretty quickly

and then I didn't have any more issues for the whole rest of the day

and the whole rest of the time that I was in the hospital.

I felt really thankful and grateful for that, that it wasn't worse.

I wasn't going to have any permanent issues,

but you know, my scans did show

that I had a lack of oxygen to a certain part of my brain for a certain amount of time.

Still definitely really, really scary.

So when I was in the emergency room, they kept me overnight.

They did tons of tests.

They did blood tests to see if I had a clotting disorder or if I had an autoimmune disease or

they did everything and anything

that they could think of they did they also did a certain test called a bubble echo

which is when they do an echo on your heart

and they take saline and they kind of i don't want to say shake it up

but they they make it so it has bubbles in it

and then they put the bubbles in your vein to see

if you have any bubbles escaping out of any part of your heart

and what they're looking for in

that test is something called a pfo basically what a pfo is something

that you are born with

and typically at birth it's supposed to close on its own except sometimes it does not

and it's a flap that's kind of like this between the right

and the left chambers of the heart so

when i was in the emergency room they did this test they didn't see anything they told me

that i didn't have a pfo so the next day i was discharged

and i went down to ucla to see some more doctors to do some more thorough in-depth testing

because at that point they didn't really have an answer

or a conclusion for why this had happened they did come

to the conclusion of why they think i had a blood clot in the first place in the conclusion

that all of the the doctors came to was three different things.

One was that I had just recently started birth control pills

which i should have never been on

because i am somebody who suffered from migraines anyway

and i just did not talk to my doctor about this

100

so ladies if you suffer from bad migraines

101

and you plan on being on birth control pills make sure you tell your doctor

102

because having a stroke is a potential side effect from

103

birth control pills the second thing was i had recently had covid

104

and that was something that they thought was a contributing factor

105

and then the third thing was

106

that i had recently gone on a really long flight i had flown to paris

107

and back in a very short amount of time

108

and i slept through the whole flight both ways didn't get up

109

and move around never thought about wearing compression socks

110

so basically all of the doctors came to the conclusion

111

that it was a perfect storm that led to me having a small blood clot

112

and that was the conclusion

113

so they still didn't know necessarily how the blood clot traveled to my brain

114

so when i went down to ucla we did some more in-depth testing

115

and when i went there they did something called a transcranial doppler

116

which is basically a very a much more accurate test to find a pfo

117

and what they do is similarly they do the saline with the bubbles they inject it

118

but with this test they listen for the sound of bubbles escaping in in the heart

119

if they don't hear anything presumably you you don't have a pfo

120

if they hear a little bit you might have one

121

but it's small and if they hear tons of bubbles escaping you have one

122

it's probably large so I I did this test

123

and they actually found that I had a grade 5 PFO

124

which is the highest uh grade that you can have

125

so mine was fairly large but at this point too I was just grateful

126

that they found it and that they knew that it was there and also the conclusion was that

127

I had a blood clot that traveled into my heart

128

and instead of what typically happens if you have a small blood clot is

129

that the heart will filter the blood clot to your lungs

130

and your lungs will absorb because the lungs are so big and they can handle it.

131

What happened with me is my blood clot actually escaped through the flap

132

or the hole in my heart and it traveled to my brain and that is why I suffered a TIA.

133

So the recommendation from my doctors at UCLA was to have a procedure done called a PFO closure,

134

which is when they go through your groin,

135

through the femoral vein in your groin,

136

and they travel up to the heart,

137

and they put this small little button.

138

It looks like a little button.

139

That buttons close the flap in the heart,

140

and then eventually your heart tissue grows back over the closure device and that's it.

141

And then you have it forever and you continue on with normal life.

142

So I recently got the PFO closure done and it went very smoothly.

143

I'm recovering really well, really fast.

144

I feel great.

145

The biggest thing I feel honestly is I just feel really relieved that we were able to figure everything out,

146

that we were able to get it closed,

147

that I will be able to just move on from this really scary situation

148

and just live my life and it was definitely a really eye-opening thing for me.

149

I definitely felt a lot of anxiety through the situation because from when the TIA happened,

150

when I had the procedure to close the PFO,

151

I just was really nervous a lot of the time about having another TIA

152

or experiencing those symptoms again and then I would get really bad anxiety

153

and my anxiety was kind of making me feel funny.

154

It would make my fingers and hands feel kind of tingly

155

and I just honestly like had a really really hard time in the in-between.

156

So ever since the TIA I have been on a blood thinner

157

and aspirin every single day

158

and I was also having an issue with the blood thinner medication because it was exacerbating my anxiety.

159

It was making me feel very out of it, just really sleepy.

160

but I was able to figure out the dose with my doctor and now I feel much better.

161

Now that it's all done I feel so much relief

162

and I feel just so grateful to all of the doctors at Eisenhower Medical Center who took care of me,

163

all the doctors at UCLA who took care of me,

164

Dr. Tobis who performed my procedure and has taken really good care of me.

165

Yeah, it's kind of like hard for me to tell this story.

166

You know, I've only really up until now told friends and family and people that I know and that I'm close to,

167

but I felt like it was important for me to share this

168

and because it already was like kind of a public situation and people kind of knew,

169

but they didn't really know the full story

170

and I also wanted to wait to explain everything until my procedure was done and finished and

171

everything had gone smoothly and was okay.

172

That's my story.

173

That's what happened.

174

If there's anybody that watches this that has gone through the same thing or something similar,

175

I definitely really empathize with you and I understand how life-altering and scary it is.

176

And if there's anybody out there who sees this

177

and has maybe experienced similar things but doesn't really know the reason

178

or know why i would definitely encourage you to talk to a doctor

179

and yeah so this is what happened and um thanks for watching

180

Thank you.

쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법

쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
