Emilia Clarke speaking about the moment she was awakened during surgery so doctors could obtain her consent to open her skull after the procedure went wrong and she suffered a second brain hemorrhage. After the operation, doctors believed she could be left blind and paralyzed.

okay so that sounds like an absolute fucking nightmare
Man doctors truly are the world’s strongest soldiers
That is truly the unnerving thing I’ve heard and I don’t know how to feel about it
God she is so strong. All this while starring in the biggest show in the world and all eyes are on you. Idk if this was known back then but you would never she was going through this while she had that massive smile on her face.
What an absolute terrible rollercoaster for her parents there omg
I can’t even begin to imagine going through something so scary all while starring in the biggest TV series in the world at that point, and all eyes are on you. I’m just glad she’s okay!
horror story
That’s horrifying
Holy sh— she’s a remarkable woman, sounds like a hellish experience
And she didn’t speak about this for YEARS? I must be boring because this would be my entire personality after surviving 😭
As someone who was in and out of the hospital a lot as a kid, this is 100% my greatest fear. I have so much respect for this woman.
Gee, no wonder she’s not keen on elective procedures.
She is one of the top 3 best celebrities to come out of Hollywood. Protecc her at all costs
I was working at the hospital she was treated at the time and there was a rumor she was there in neuro but I thought nah they must have it mixed up bc she never showed any signs of anthing.

I remember reading the article she wrote about the brain aneurisms years ago. So horrifying to hear even more details about it now
Imagine the pressure of operating on the mother of dragons 😂
Omg nightmare fuel..poor lady, I’m glad shes okay now
As someone who also survived this, I’m so proud of her for being so poised speaking about this. She is an inspiration to me.
They woke her up specifically to get her consent? They couldn’t keep her asleep and ask her parents so she wouldn’t be in pain?!
“Hey we didn’t just want to do this without asking. I mean I figured it be impolite, but can we just open your skull real quick?”
Jesus fucking christ
I woke up halfway though an operation. They did not put me back to sleep and I was awake for the rest of the procedure.
Edit: I was 10 years old when it happened.
That’s terrifying.
It’s kind of crazy she filmed Last Christmas after this happened, if you know the plot. Very sweet film but I’d think it could bring up some tough feelings
I love that the interviewer was all of us and too shocked to say a word.
i’m sorry but it was so funny to me that the video abruptly cuts right during that part specifically ☠️
I can not imagine going through this. Hope this woman has a lovely, long life.
