		<description><![CDATA[As July 29 rolls near, memories and thoughts nibble at me. Just three years ago on the evening of July 29, the world as I knew it died and a new one began. On that date, a brain aneurysm ruptured. The events that unfolded were shocking and scary to my friends and family. Of course, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Last week the mail carrier delivered my newsletter from the National Brain Aneurysm Foundation, which is based near Boston, MA. As I flipped through it, my attention was caught by two stories that outlined current research into brain aneurysms.
I already knew about the work being done at Yale. Research there involves genetics and the identification [...]]]></description>

A couple weeks ago, I saw a young man I know. Call him Mike. He is handsomely cute, funny, and remarkably insightful.  This 20-something “kid” (my words) is also blessed with an envious amount of shiny, wavy hair which is the color of a rich [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Lately, I’ve been thinking a lot about Jello. A couple friends have had stomach issues, so I brought them some. Another friend just had surgery and her hospital food tray came with a dish of it—just like many of my own food trays did when I was at the National Brain Aneurysm Center.
Frankly, Jello is [...]]]></description>

But I know that the lamb will leave and the lion will roar. I also know that those of us with brain aneurysms will feel that feline’s bite.
