Hi everyone! I bet you didn't expect to see me here today. You know, I'm supposed to be working on something else on a non-filming day, but I just had this urge to chat with you all. This video is a little different, though, as it's not something I can plan or script meticulously because it's one of those rants that come straight from the heart.

So, let me spill the beans. I've been dealing with this brain task while taking a break from my CSF Venus fistulas recovery. And you know what? I'm so grateful for the progress I've made.

But there's this little piece of me that's struggling to adapt to having a normal, functioning brain again. After being in a haze for about six or seven years, waking up to reality feels like a rollercoaster.

I've got so much on my mind right now that it's a bit overwhelming. I stumbled upon some old projects I'd worked on for 'Momming with Migraine,' and it hit me that my thinking was entirely different back then.

It's like comparing high-pressure and low-pressure versions of myself, and coming out of that haze, it's JUST eye-opening.

But, you know what? It's not just about that. I'm starting to remember things that I'd forgotten. Silly things, like ordering way too much seaweed snacks in a haze of migraines. It's got me wondering what else I've forgotten in my life. Could there be something?

Well, whatever the case, this isn’t about me being ungrateful; but it definitely is about the journey towards rediscovery. So what are you waiting for? Tune in!
