Your post is incredibly powerful. The simple black and white photos, coupled with your deeply personal narrative, create a stark contrast that emphasizes the gravity of your experience. The seemingly small details—the rye bread sandwich, the paper curtains—become imbued with profound meaning in the context of your stroke and the fear you felt. The way you describe the shift in your life, comparing it to a body-swap comedy with a tragic twist, is both insightful and heartbreaking. Thank you for sharing such a vulnerable and moving account. Your story is a reminder of life's fragility and the importance of cherishing every moment.
I hope that for at least a few minutes, whoever reads will cherish a moment or two in their day. It might be important to them later.
