Why Am I Alive and Well? It is a True Miracle!
Every day I wake up and ask myself this question. I am nothing special. I was just a workaholic accountant before my life changed. On December 20, 2010, while on vacation in Las Vegas with my husband and two close girlfriends having a good time, my life changed. I had a cerebral arteriovenous malformation hemorrhage aka brain aneurysms. I was lucking to in a public area and was near a major trauma center in less than 30 minutes. I was born with this problem. It is an abnormal connection between the arteries and the veins in the brain. Most of the time it shows up before age 25 and is fatal.
Somehow it waited until was 59 years old. Healthy normal female. But it did. I was lucky because at first because of my age they thought it might be a stroke. But when they took CAT scans they saw the intracranial hemorrhage caused by the aneurysm. I was lucky again because I had a wonderful doctor that had to stop the brain bleed by having surgery through my groin area to stop the bleeding in my head. It worked. But I was left in a coma for 6 weeks because of the brain trauma.
While in the coma I had basal spasms that should have been fatal. I also had two blood clots that traveled into my arm and leg. They had to surgically implant mesh to break up the blood clots. I also had a blot clot in my lung. They call this a embolism and was treated with antibiotics to treat the pneumonia it left me with.
When I started to come out of the coma into a comatose state I couldn't talk, stand, eat, know my love ones, everything in my mind was wiped clean. I had a tough road through multiple hospitals, rehabs, doctors, nurses, etc that help me come back. It took 7 months before I learned how to drink a little water with supervision. No one knew if I was every going to get better, since I was so unique. Even my neurologist in New Jersey was a pediatric neurologist.
It is now 2 years since that day. I am writing this letter to you. I can read, cook and even drive. My husband says I am about at 80% which is better than most people at 100%. I am reliving my life twice. My memory from 20-30 years ago is crystal clear. I remember old addresses, telephone numbers and events. My memories are so clear. I wonder why I was saved and I lost so many good friends to cancer at a young age.
Maybe I am alive to tell everyone what it is like to be in coma? That we hear everything, feel everything, hot and cold, wet or dry . We hear everything so do not talk about us but to us. We see flashes of people that have died, but not the ones we thought we would. That we feel pain so please do not assume we do not. We need hope and encouragement. That sometimes miracles do happen. It did for me.
