Brooke Shields reveals she had a seizure — and she woke up to Bradley Cooper holding her hand
November 1, 2023
New York, NY - Brooke Shields has opened up about a serious health scare that included a surreal, only-in-New York moment involving Bradley Cooper last month. The actor and supermodel revealed in a new interview with Glamour that she had "a full-blown grand mal seizure" on Sept. 7, five days before her one-woman show, "Previously Owned by Brooke Shields," opened at the Café Carlyle in New York City. "I was preparing for the show, and I was drinking so much water, and I didn’t know I was low in sodium," Shields said. "I was waiting for an Uber. I get down to the bottom of the steps, and I start evidently looking weird, and (the people I was with) were like, 'Are you okay?'" Shields then said she left her house and was walking to the corner. "I’m like, 'Why am I out here?' Then I walk into the restaurant L’Artusi, and I go to the sommelier who had just taken an hour to watch my run-through," she said. "I go in, two women come up to me; I don’t know them. Everything starts to go black. Then my hands drop to my side and I go headfirst into the wall." Shields, 58, said she began having a grand mal seizure, which is also known as a tonic-clonic seizure. It causes a loss of consciousness and violent muscle contractions and can be triggered by very low blood sugar, a high fever or a stroke, according to the Mayo Clinic.

After Buffett died of skin cancer earlier this year, Michaels was motivated to ask a doctor about some concerns of his own.
"I thought maybe it's a good time just to check," Michaels told DC 101's Elliot in the Morning . "Most of what I thought was bad ended up being good and the one I thought was good ended up not being good. So we biopsied, went in immediately and right now everything's looking great."

As we find ourselves in the place we imagined we might end up is sure is tragic and depressing to see all the people we tried to warn crashing all around us like this. Can't imagine how all the normies are going to react when they discover the truth they cannot handle.
Buildings jump out of nowhere when you're in a modRNA transfection trance.
