Emilia Clarke Revealed That Part Of Her Brain “Died” From Two Aneurysms

Last month, Emilia Clarke revealed that she’d experienced several life-threatening brain aneurysms that started after the first season of Game of Thrones wrapped.

In an essay for the New Yorker, Emilia explained that she’d been rushed into urgent surgery in 2011 after being diagnosed with a subarachnoid haemorrhage — a stroke that one-third of patients can die from.

She wrote: “I’d never experienced fear like that — a sense of doom closing in. I could see my life ahead, and it wasn’t worth living. I am an actor; I need to remember my lines. Now I couldn’t recall my name. In my worst moments, I wanted to pull the plug. I asked the medical staff to let me die. My job — my entire dream of what my life would be — centered on language, on communication. Without that, I was lost.”

Emilia went on to write that when she returned to work six weeks later, she thought she was about to die “every minute of every day”.

She wrote: “I told my bosses at Thrones about my condition, but I didn’t want it to be a subject of public discussion and dissection. The show must go on! Season two would be my worst. I didn’t know what Daenerys was doing. If I am truly being honest, every minute of every day I thought I was going to die.”

Well, during an appearance on CBS This Morning on Sunday, Emilia opened up further about her experiences and shared never-before-seen photos from her hospitalisation. – Source
