This from Jill Bolte Taylor (AVM survivor, professor, scientist, spokesperson)

Hello friends, My Stroke of Insight is being translated into 20 different
languages and I am currently scheduled to be on Oprah on Sept 23rd. I taped last Thursday with Oprah and Dr. Oz and I brought beautiful brains for show and tell!

Life is a blessing.

Just to be clear. I’m flattered, but I am not appearing on Oprah. Dr. Jill Bolt Taylor is. Sept 23.

13

Ok Brittany,

I am able to respond to you. I wasn’t signed on for the moment, I do not know why. I know it felt like I was getting stabbled in-between my back and my nead in the back of my neck for the longest period of time. Until I was able to get to the hospital and they were able to give me some good drugs to numb the pain.

THIS UPDATE FROM DR. TAYLOR. KEEP YOU ALL UPDATED WHEN I HEAR MORE.

Hi everyone! The airing of my interview on the Oprah show has been
postponed. We don’t know the new air date yet. Please keep an eye on my
web-site at drjilltaylor.com or on the Oprah.com web-site for the new air
date. I will try to give you a few days advance warning, but I am traveling
a lot this Fall and may not be able to.

Thanks for your continued enthusiastic support of my endeavors. I value the
gift you are to the world and to my life.

Jill

Exactly. The ones who have any idea what an avm is are the ones that ask “Do you watch ‘Six Feet Under’?” Apparently a character on the show had one.

In the meantime, Lianne asked me to post this link for the group for Jill’s XM radio intervew webcast with Oprah:
