追加: 2026-05-16

[00:00:00]She walked into the hospital speaking normally. She walked out a different person and 15 years later she still is.

[00:00:08]In 2009 Karen Butler went in for routine dental surgery. She went under anesthesia. She woke up British. Not confused, not disoriented, British.

[00:00:18]The accent she had spoken with for 56 years gone.

[00:00:22]Doctors diagnosed her with foreign accent syndrome, a rare neurological condition triggered by brain trauma.

[00:00:29]The brain rewires itself during recovery and sometimes the voice that comes out isn't the one that went in.

[00:00:35]Only 100 cases have ever been documented worldwide. Karen was born in Oregon. She has never lived outside the United States. She has never been to Britain.

[00:00:45]She still has the accent today.
