MaximFesenko / ThinkStockA mother of seven from Arizona wakes up with a British accent after a headache-induced nap.
Headaches are not a new thing for former Miss Black Austin Texas, Michelle Myers. In 2015 she suffered from a headache so severe it left her right eye temporarily blind, unable to move the left side of her body.
She claims the accent lasted about a week, but the same thing happened years ago when she woke with an Australian accent which also lasted a week.
After being taken to the emergency room for the severe headache in 2015, she woke up with a British accent that has been with her ever since. Weird right?
It's actually a real condition called Foreign Accent Syndrome and it usually follows a stroke or other condition that causes neurological damage.
Myers also suffers from Ehlers-Danlos syndrome which includes rupturing blood vessels, easy bruising and painful joints. She even said the condition has changed the way she pronounces her children's names.
