"Half my face had collapsed."

If you've been listening to something shifted for a while, you've probably wondered about your own life quake.
For Lesego, there are two distinct moments when the ground beneath his feet gave way.
When he was fifteen, his dad passed away.
And again when he was 32, when he thought he was having a stroke.
Eventually it was confirmed that Lesego Majatladi had Bell's Palsy.
Bells Palsy is a strange condition which doctors can only diagnosis once every other possibility has been ruled out.
An unexplained paralysis of facial muscles often associated with the latent effects of stress, bell’s palsy begins suddenly and can get progressively worse.
In Lesego’s case, contracting bell’s palsy was an acknowledgement that the life he had wasn’t what he wanted for himself, and things needed to change.
QUOTES:
'I stopped interacting with the world more than anything because it became an irritation. You walk into a room and people literally gasp, and then you must explain what's going on.'
'Experiencing Bell's palsy at 32 was terrifying, but it forced me to reevaluate my life and priorities.'
'The gift of Bell's palsy is an appreciation of mortality. You suddenly realize that life is not guaranteed, and if you want to do things, you better do them.'
