Frans Bauer thought things were not going well for his wife, Mariska, when it turned out that she had suffered a cerebral infarction. The Brabant singer said that tonight on Omroep Max Mind your mind, as the couple looked back on the intense event. “Things went from bad to worse in the emergency room.”
Mariska couldn’t keep it dry tonight as she looked back on the day she had a cerebral infarction. Earlier today she announced on Instagram that this happened while she was shopping. “I thought: Did I eat something wrong? It just felt really weird.”
Mariska’s husband, Francis, says he sensed something was wrong. Together they went to the doctor, who prescribed Mariska allergy pills. “In the car it was even more crazy. I thought she was drunk. But of course she wasn’t. So I immediately went to the hospital. It went from bad to worse in the emergency room. Her face started to sag and she could no longer move her arms and legs. “I got scared and thought: This won’t work,” said the singer.
Maresca is now on the mend physically, but mentally it’s still a huge struggle. I used to keep thirty balls in the air, and it kept the whole family running. And I’m doing it a little slower now. I’ve gone from a busy bee to a quiet butterfly.”

Mariska Bauer, 46, was so unaware of the symptoms associated with a cerebral infarction that she didn’t realize it was happening to her. I thought stroke is a thing for the elderly. This is a big misunderstanding: it can happen to anyone! Even if you are not yet fifty. Fortunately, I came out fine. You don’t see anything about me on the outside, but I had to adjust my life. Maresca writes that many of the consequences of a cerebral infarction are not visible to the outside world.
Mariska Bauer had a heart attack in January. A few months later, after intensive rehabilitation, she gets the idea that things are “getting a little better” and she knows how to distribute her energy better.
