A year ago, the gifted singer Lira went through a life-changing experience when she suffered a stroke in Germany. The star recently took to Instagram to share her journey of recovery and express gratitude for her progress. Lira posted a series of clips capturing moments from her time in Germany, her hospital stay, and her journey home, as well as her ongoing recovery.
The singer opened up about her stroke, which occurred while she was in Germany for a performance. Lira described how she was enjoying a solo walk, taking in the sights and sounds of the city, just two days before her scheduled performance. Unbeknownst to her, she experienced a stroke that lasted about 15 minutes, affecting her ability to communicate.
“I was so happy to be in Germany,” Lira wrote. “I spent the whole afternoon walking. At about 4:15 pm I had a stroke… I had no idea what was happening, so I kept walking.”
Despite her inability to speak, Lira managed to make her way to a nearby restaurant. As she tried to communicate with the staff, she broke down in tears. The journey back to her hotel took two hours, and once there, she realized she could not text or communicate with the hotel staff.
Eventually, Lira managed to convey her situation to someone close to her, who then helped her get assistance. Her agent sent two people to assess her condition, and an ambulance was called to take her to the hospital.
Lira expressed her shock and sadness upon learning she had suffered a stroke, but she also shared her acceptance and determination to overcome the challenges it presented. A year later, the singer’s strength and resilience continue to inspire her fans as she navigates her journey to recovery.
