Brain Aneurysm Foundation

I'm fundraising for the Brain Aneurysm Foundation! 

​In September 2023, my father suddenly experienced a rupture of a brain aneurysm no one knew he had. Thankfully, he survived, but he is one of a good half dozen or so on his side of my family who has experienced this, most of whom died from it. Now, I receive periodic CT scans of my own brain because I'm at an increased risk of a brain aneurysm, given such a heavy family history. 

I'm walking to raise funds for the Brain Aneurysm Foundation, in hopes that further research can provide earlier warning signs so fewer people have to deal with such a sudden, life-threatening event.

Brain aneurysms have a survival rate of less than 30%. Let's try and change that.

Thank you for any and all support you can provide!

From the Brain Aneurysm Foundation:

OUR MISSION: To promote early detection of brain aneurysms by providing knowledge and raising awareness of the signs, symptoms and risk factors. Work with the medical communities to provide support networks for patients and families, as well as to further research that will improve patient outcomes and save lives.

Through your support, the Brain Aneurysm Foundation will be able to continue to provide support and educational materials and information to brain aneurysm patients, their families, and the medical community and to promote critical awareness of brain aneurysms which will lead to earlier detection. The Brain Aneurysm Foundation is funding essential research that will promote a better understanding of why this condition happens and identify those at risk before an aneurysm rupture occurs. 

Thank you for making a difference with your support!
