Jill Taylor spoke of this when she had a massive stroke and entered into Nirvana briefly, and to be able to talk about it again, It took her 8 years to fully recover as well. She is my hero, I read her book twice (novel, and the other a CD collection)
Here is her youtube link (its about 20 mins long, so relax and enjoy)

This healed me and anyone, even without a stroke problem...
(Just use the right side of your brain!)
Nirvāṇa in Buddhism
The Buddha described Nirvāṇa as the perfect peace of the state of mind that is free from craving, anger and other afflictive states (kilesas). It is also the "end of the world"; there is no identity left, and no boundaries for the mind. The subject is at peace with the world, has compassion for all and gives up obsessions and fixations. This peace is achieved when the existing volitional formations are pacified, and the conditions for the production of new ones are eradicated. In Nirvāṇa the root causes of craving and aversion have been extinguished, so that one is no longer subject to human suffering (Pali: dukkha) or further rebirth in Samsara.
