Emilia Clarke lost a piece of herself after having two brain bleeds
32 years old Game of thrones star was profiled on CBS Sunday morning and revealed that after suffering from two brain haemorrhages, a piece of his brain died.
"I was in the gym and the most excruciating pain, like a rubber band, went like a punch in the head and a huge, sudden pressure," she recalls her first bleeding in 2011. "Very quickly, I realized that I could not stay up and that I could not walk in. And by that time, I knew my brain was damaged."
Despite the severity of the injury, Clarke returned to work just six weeks after the bleeding.
"It's like:" Hey, thank you for giving me the job. "" Super appreciate .I just had a little trick .I'm fine, I'm fine, & # 39; and so I felt good, "she says.
The second hemorrhage occurred two years later and was much more serious than the first.
"So, the second, there is a bit of my brain that is really dead," Clarke explained, as pictures of her at the hospital appeared on the screen. "If part of your brain does not run for a minute, it will not work anymore, it's like you're doing a short circuit, so I got that."
The doctors did not know which part of his brain was dead, but they thought it might be related to his concentration or peripheral vision.
"I always say that it's my taste in men that's no longer there! It's the part of my brain, yeah, my decent taste in men," she joked. before revealing that she feared that her ability to act was actually the domain of her brain was affected.
"It was a deep paranoia, even from the first," she admitted. "I thought to myself" What if something was bypassed in my brain and I can not act anymore? "I mean, literally it's my reason to live for a very long time. "
Her recovery was well "a daily affair", a situation for which Clarke said she "had definitely gone through a period of sadness". But it was his role as Daenerys Targaryen in Game of thrones it really helped him through this difficult time.
"You go on the set and you play a bada ** and you walk through the fire, and that's what I just avoided thinking about my own mortality," she said. declared.
The interview took place a few days after the appearance of Clarke on The parade of Stephen Colbertwhere she explained how her perspective on life had changed since her health.
"Being completely honest has made me petrify most of the time, which happens very often," she said. "I would like to stay here and say that I was like:" Let 's go, I do not know, let' s jump from the plane, "he said. [but] I really was not. "
"… At some point, you start to realize how lucky you are … The perspective it gives you is huge, and then you're lucky for the rest of your life," she said. added. "You can know how lucky you are."
When Leanne Aguilera from ET caught up with her Game of thrones co-stars, Iain Glen and Jason Momoa, they congratulated Clarke for his strength.
"It's been a long time since I was part of this whole situation, so we had so many fears and trying to find the right way out and help," Momoa said. "I just think it's beautiful … that she's so brave to help the world and to try to educate the world."
"I'm very sad because we almost lost her the first time, so I like her a lot and she's here and she's going to do great things with that and teach the world," she said. -he adds.
"It's such a great and strong woman, but she was really scared," Glen agreed. "I think when you come out like that, everything must be golden." I think the The Thrones the family was good with her. I hope she will say that, but they have guided her and kept her as much as possible. "
"I think that in a funny way, she was always happy to come back to the warm world of The Thrones like this contradiction [to time in the hospital]Glen added, "But the spirit has always been extraordinary for all of us as actors while we were in the series."
The eighth and final season of Game of thrones premieres on April 14 on HBO. Watch the video below to learn more about Clarke:
