I will passing your blog onto a family whose daughter suffered a brain aneurysm last year. She is now 20 years old and has Polycystic Kidney Disease.

She is now in a wheelchair and in a very debilated state as her aneurysm caused to also suffer a mid-brain stroke.

Going to the grocery store on her own would be a dream come true for Ashley.

We can only hope and pray that she is as blessed as you.

Everybody’s rupture is different, and I guess mine wasn’t so severe, but I found grocery shopping to be good therapy. I was very weak and unsteady after getting released from the hospital, so I used the grocery cart for support as I creeped slowly through the store.

Wow, this is soooo true. ANY kind of store is a challange. It was such a sense of accomplishment when I was able to go grocery shopping by myself again and not feel horrible for hours afterwards. Then, the store went and changed their layout. Even three years after my rupture and coiiling, it was a real test and was more difficult than I would have expected. Any new store is a challenge, but when grocery shopping you’re looking for verys specific things and that’s the hard part…finding them if they’ve been moved to another location. It’s just too much work isn’t it?

Glad to know we’re not alone in that struggle.
