“Oh, gosh, I get that question 50 times a day. I like to say — something I use news recently was, people say, ‘Ah, 6 or 7′ [out of 10].’ I’ll get up to 7, then have a go back to 6.”

On How It Happened:

“You can’t know when you’re going to have them. And then I just had it. I was in Florida by myself and woke up one morning and everything was messed up. I had to call Lauren to come down from Memphis and to get me in the hospital.”
