Thank you Win! I would love for you to write more...advice is always welcome...sometimes it's the only thing that makes sense .

Hi there Win!

Thank you for your support.  My husband told me the other day that he has never seen me laugh so much as I do now.  Addy said she has never seen me laugh myself to tears so many times...ever.  So maybe I just have some down days.

I do think that recovery is a long process and I get blue when it goes slower than I would like, or I find another thing that I have to pace myself at.  I am bull headed, and don't quit until I have to

Everyone here has had a tough row to hoe, but yes...we have all made it.  I will smile every time I think of your kind words!

Have an amazing day!  

P.S.  I can't wait for the song... but in the interim here is one for you.

"My head keeps spinning

I go to sleep and keep grinning

If this is just the beginning

My life is gonna be beautiful"

Bored, I think not!  

Sort of funny though, my daughter saved my life also.  Called her dad to come home and called 911.

Glad you are doing well!

Hi there Ametrine,

I also have this same type of thing you are describing.  Very quick to rage, not anger, rage.  And if I latch onto something in my head...nope, can't let it go until I am satisfied it has been dealt with.

My SAH happened on July 9, 2014...coming up on a year ago. 

Where I am, our hospital offers a support group that I have attended with my husband since I was able.  They have brought in the coil suppliers, pharmacists & spiritual leaders. 

I have seen the coils and handled them.  All the coils are designed to turn when they leave the catheter.  We were also told that the average rupture requires approximately five coils. I thought it was one of the neatest things I have ever seen.  

Our group leaders have done an amazing job  letting us know what has happened, that you are not alone and that there are folks to help you deal with all of the side effects of SAH.
