The 54-year-old actress was at that time still married to ex-husband Phil Bronstein and says the experience made her appreciate her life much more, reported Showbizspy.

"My head blew up. It was almost as if I was shot. I had two unbelievably painful shots in the left side of my head that physically knocked me over on to the couch. I called Phil and said, 'I think I've had a stroke.' I was haemorrhaging into my brain for 11 days before they found out what was going on," Stone said.

"Yes, I had a 'white light' experience. It was a very beautiful and illuminating experience. It was a very profound thing to come back," she added.

 

The star, who has three sons, Roan, 12, Laird, seven, and six-year-old Quinn, also said that her experience, as well as going through a divorce, made her brave.
