Getting ready for my yearly check-up with the neurosurgeon tomorrow!
Can you tell I’m a bit side-tracked? I guess I should prepare some questions and statements for him about my conditions, huh.
Spent the day (when I was home) making these fliers.
Download the fliers here: midatlanticavm.com

Help spread Arteriovenous Malformation (AVM) and Aneurysm Awareness!
So it was yesterday, 2 years ago, that my life was completely changed.
Thank you, to everyone who has supported me for the past 2 years, making this painful journey bearable.
The world hasn’t gotten rid of me just yet!
