The Marsh San Francisco Presents "My Stroke of Luck" at The Marsh San Francisco

Not everyone knows that the average person loses 1.9 million brain cells every minute a stroke goes untreated, but Diane Barnes did. As a radiologist who diagnoses strokes, Barnes did not deal with having a stroke very well; it was more than 20 hours before she went to the hospital. In a new solo show at The Marsh San Francisco, Barnes recounts her experience of having a stroke, her path to recovery, and more, in "My Stroke of Luck." A spellbinding and funny look at love, family, and seemingly insurmountable obstacles, Barnes shares the story of a single adoptive mother of special needs and gifted sons and how she forges a new identity after a debilitating stroke.
