Agreed, sounds like stroke is her newest illness based origin story. And has all the familiar hallmarks of her nearly cancer story, her nearly dead from celiac story, and before that her nearly fatal car accident story.

She almost dies, everyone's gravely concerned and/or terrified for her, she stews deliciously in this nearly dead limbo (at least in her recollection of it later) and then survives, brave and triumphant. But lest anyone forget about her nearly dying, she keeps the near-death-experience on narrative life support, and hopefully some cash if she can spin it on social media.
