A Voice for Mama: The Silence Stroke Left Behind
from At the Root of It
Twenty years ago, my mother suffered a massive stroke that changed our family forever. For two decades, the details of that day -- the fear, the confusion, the heartbreak, and the silence that followed -- have lived behind closed doors, shared only among family. In this episode, I'm opening that door for the first time. This episode is a way of honoring my mother's memory, and speaking words that she couldn't and that I wasn't ready to share until now. If you've ever lost a parent, cared for someone after a stroke, or carried grief in silence, this conversation is for you. This is not just my mother's stroke story -- it's her voice that I carry through mine. Send us Fan MailConnect with us on social media! InstagramFacebook
