An astronaut lost the ability to speak for twenty minutes in orbit. Months later, no one can explain why. The real story is what that silence exposed about the architecture.
I'm an expert on this, and when they said he had lost his speech, I thought he had a stroke. I had a brain bleed almost 7 years ago. No pain. For the first 3 days afterward, I could only speak gobbledy-gook. On the 4th day my speech became normal...no treatment, and where my stroke occurred in my brain, surgery was not an option. There's more, but I'll leave it at that. Suffice to say...I shouldn't be here.

Thank you for sharing. That entire ordeal must have been really troubling. We are grateful you are here.
