Sharon Stone has shared a tearful message with her younger self, saying: “You’re going to make it.”In a new interview with the BBC, Stone broke down in tears when she was asked what she would tell her younger self about resilience.The actress said her message would be: “You’re going to make it.

You don’t know it, but you’re going to make it. I would have it tattooed on the inside of my eyelids.”“I would have wanted to have known it so many times,” she says.Stone referenced the time she almost died from a brain haemorrhage 23 years ago.

Last year, Stone claimed that doctors ​​thought that she was “faking” the medical emergency in 2001. That year, Stone was hospitalised after suffering a stroke that led to a bleed on her brain – something that lasted for nine days.

The Basic Instinct star was given just a one per cent chance of survival after the incident.Revisiting that, Stone said: “When I was on the floor and couldn’t get an ambulance…When I went home [from hospital] and I read in People magazine that we wouldn’t know for 30 days if I was going to live or die.”After this, Stone went on to discuss other battles she has faced in her life, including financial troubles and a custody battle with her ex-husband over their adopted son.“It’s been that long and it’s OK… it’s over…everybody made it to shore,” she added.In an interview with Vogue last year, Stone recalled waking up in hospital in LA with a crippling headache. “I remember waking up on a gurney and asking the kid wheeling it where I was going, and him saying, ‘brain surgery,’” the actress said.“A doctor had decided, without my knowledge or consent, that he should give me exploratory brain surgery and sent me off to the operating room.
