Mitchell described how the condition affected her ability to walk–something she compared to the effects of Polio.
“Once again I couldn’t walk. I had to learn how again. I couldn’t talk,” she said.
“Polio didn’t grab me like that, but the aneurysm took away a lot more, really. Took away my speech and my ability to walk.
“I got my speech back quickly, but the walking I’m still struggling with. But I mean, I’m a fighter. I’ve got Irish blood! So you know, I knew, ‘Here I go again, another battle.’”
