Just looking for more Brain Anuresym Surviver here in Toronto/Canada..Because after my Anuresym I had no one who could relate what I was going through..One day finishing my last semester in university (Financial Accounting)..Next day on life support!!!!!
I’m from Toronto. I have an unruptured aneurysm and surgery booked for October. Going to Toronto Western.
HI Rick I am not in Toronto but Nova Scotia and am waiting to have my annie clipped but I do have an ear if you want to chat... You are how old? Still in university, wow, I am 55 and found my annie by change and this waiting game is freaking me out the closer I get...
You were on life support, hmmm do I want to talk to him?? That could happen to me??? Is how I am thinking our course but you have to have the faith and pray that your operation goes as planned, right??
Anyway drop me a line or just vent on the site in general, people on there seem great.
Take care
Brenda
Proud to be Canadian LOL :)
Hi Ricky, hello again, I just saw this post. I’m from Markham, Ontario, which is like a half hour drive from Toronto. But with traffic, a hour! I’m surprised you’re so young. But this illness have " no mercy" for age. We have kids on this site, with ruptured aneurysm, some have not survived. So tragic, I understand, I am a mother. But having a deep faith of God. Especially with being a survivor of a horrendous trauma- I have asked myself " why me" countless time initially. But with the love of my husband-my rock, kids-my angels, relatives, and friends./my support system. The medical staff of Toronto Western Hospital, - the place that saved my life,
Toronto Rehabilation Hospital,- the place that gave me back some of my mobility and Centennial Hospital Scarborough- outpatient physiotherapy.
I am here, alive and kicking, with God’s Grace. I won’t be denied- this is my warrior chant"this aneurysm does not defined me, it is not who I am, I’m better than this, it’s just a illness. It’s not who I am!" Keep the Faith Ricky, you are in good hands. One of the best hospital, in Canada for brain injury, and brain trauma.- Toronto Western Hospital- I’m a walking miracle, because of the power of a God, who placed expertise, in those surgeons’ hands. And all the medical personnel that has crossed my path. My prayers, and thoughts
are with your loved ones, and you.
We have many wonderful Canadian survivor's for you ... ~ Thoughts out to you ~ Colleen
