Well i have a few questions about brain anerisims and i was wondering
who could tell me about them. Why do they happen and what causes them.
When i was 9 years old i stayed home from school because i didnt do my
homework (i said i was sick),when i finally came out of my bedroom my
mom was lying on the couch andcouldn't move, she could barely talk,
could hardly hear me and was acting really funny. When my grandparents
got there, the ambulance took her away, and never again did i see her.
She died 1 week later in the hospital. My family told me that she died
from a brain anerisim, but being 9 yrs old i had no clue what that was.
and the funny thing is, i still to this day dont know what really
happened to my mom and what she went through,my family wont talk to me
about it and feel that some things are better off not talked about. Well
i just turned 18 on sat and i feel that maybe i should know the truth.
If someone could please help me out here...i really want to know what my
mother went through and if there is anything i need to worry about.
thank you, cyndi
ps, please write me back with any info.
