"The last time Joni performed with guitar in hand in front of a paying audience was 8,660 days ago, on her 55th birthday," according to Mitchell's– an abnormal swelling in an artery in the brain – which left her unable to speak or walk, much less play the guitar.with CBS News following the show, the iconic singer, who is now 78, talked about losing the ability to speak and walk, or even get out of a chair.
"To be able to recover to the point of being able to perform as a musician is really incredible," Wang told NPR. Brain surgeons often use"return-to-work" as a marker of a successful functional recovery, he explained."But very rarely is that work quite so nuanced."events, Wang explained that the most life-threatening are those in which the weakened wall of the blood vessel balloons out, then ruptures because of the intense pressure.
It is unclear what type of aneurysm Mitchell suffered – whether it ruptured at all or was caught in time to prevent that from happening. She was found unconscious in her home on March 31, 2015, and in the years since beginning rehabilitation therapy, she has been fairly private about the details of what occurred.

Lastly, Wang touched on Mitchell's will to regain the skills she reportedly lost. That's something the singer also spoke about with CBS, saying,"I don't know, but the surgeon that did the brain surgery on me, he said I had will and grit."
