“To have an award like this… cherry on the cake,” Clarke added.
“I’m going to get my photo taken because of this award.
And we’re going to say, ‘It’s for brain injury recovery.'”
Clarke herselfsuffered two aneurysmsin 2011 and 2013, which she revealed ina 2019 essay for theNew Yorker.
She returned to filming and promoting the show barely a month after her first surgery.
In 2013, she endured a second, which involved opening her skull.
Back in 2022,Clarke revealedthat a significant portion of her brain remains unusable after her ordeal.
Now she helps others face similar challenges through the advocacy and efforts of her charity.
