I saw the video where Branson had the aphasia and I immediately said to my wife "omg she is having a migrane.." Googled it and found this article. I have suffered from migraines maybe five times in the past 10 years, 37 of age now. Four years ago I had the exact same experience as Branson when I was at work. Suddenly I could not pronounce words, it was just jibberish that came out of my mouth. I tried to sing a song that I knew by heart but was unable to. I went to the ER fearing for my life I was having a stroke. They took it seriously and checked EKGs etc. Then a doctor came to have a chat with me and she immediately asked. "have you ever suffered from migraines?" And then I knew that was what caused it. Nontheless, it was a really frightening experience. Afterwards I had a strange headache for many days.
