I am one of the lucky few who survived a ruptured brain aneurysm.
A brain (brain) aneurysm is a weak spot in an artery within your head, which tends to bulge out. One of the most common type is known as a "Saccular or Berry" aneurysm because it looks like a small berry that grows on a bush.
A better example of an aneurysm is a weak spot in an inner tube of a bicycle tire. A bubble forms and then package when much air is pumped into the tire. The bubble will burst if you keep pumping air into the inner tube.
The weaknesses of an artery may be caused by a number of things.
1. Congenital
A defect in an artery that developed when you were born.
2. Hereditary.
A Relative
Grandfather
Grandmother
Aunt Flo
Uncle Sid
3. High Blood Pressure
A villain known … Smoking
Hypertension. High nervous nervous or jumpy all the time.
The type of diet … Many fats, may also contribute to hypertension.
4. A blow sharp in the head.
5. High-impact sports events.
The causes can, and are varied. It depends on your source. The four reasons above are generally accepted as the most common reasons for developing an aneurysm. It should be a matter of routine to have a thorough internal examination of the head when the Things do not seem quite right or you know there is a history of problems in your family.
What are the symptoms of a brain aneurysm?
The symptoms of a brain aneurysm that form can be difficult to detect. Almost 90% of people who have an aneurysm in good condition have no idea that something is wrong. This is the group that is most at risk of being seriously injured, or worse, die when the bursting of an aneurysm.
Note: A simple non-invasive medical examination, called Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) can detect most of the "brain aneurysms" long before the break. The problem is that Your doctor may have to go through a lot of hoops to get approval from an insurance company to pay the bill.
There are a number of symptoms indicating a possible aneurysm has formed. But too often these symptoms are ignored and go through a hassle in life.
The most difficult symptom to detect a change in personality. It is very difficult to admit they are not the same sweet, gentle person you think you are.
Some of the most common symptoms a problem of possible aneurysm are:
1. Headaches.
2. Upset stomach, vomiting, sometimes uncontrolled.
3. Stiff neck. This can be a real danger signal.
4. Double Vision.
5. Eye pain
These sound like everyday things. However, it should be ignored.
After suffering a cerebral aneurysm rupture true (subarachnoid hemorrhage-SAH-) blood flow in bud and the surrounding area outside the brain. This causes a tremendous amount of pressure and stopping in turn causes headaches.
These headaches are often called:
1. The worst headache I've had.
2. It is as if he was beaten over the head with a shovel.
3. My head felt like a bolt of lighting hit me.
Much depends on how quickly the treatment is working this kind of brain trauma. Life or death, often determined by how quickly you receive treatment for a ruptured cerebral aneurysm.
Some alarming statistics from a ruptured cerebral aneurysm are:
1. 25% will die within a day.
2. 25% of those who survive the first day will die within 6 months.
3. More than half of survivors have permanent disability.
A survivor needs much help and understanding from family members and friends. His life has turned upside down and mental confusion reigns supreme. They will need your help.
I survived a brain aneurysm that ruptured. I'm happy to take my place alongside some of the most famous are still with us today.
1. Terry Garr
2. Neil Young
3. Quincy Jones
4. Peter Gammons
It is sad to note that some were not so luck.
1. Laura Branigan
2. Shirley Walker

The message is repeatedly thrust before us: The United States ranks well below other industrialized countries with respect to education. No matter the study reading, it does not look good, we stink at reading, writing and mathematics.
In 2002 a United Nations study (UNICEF), has identified South Korea for more effective education system among the twenty richest countries in the world, Japan was second. Where the downfall of America in the list? At the bottom.
Troubling news like this always raises the ire of our elected officials. Their battle cries can be heard during the sessions Legislative: We must reform our schools! Teachers will be responsible for student learning! There should be standards, and student performance is assessed by these rules.
Therefore, No Child Left Behind is more justified. Policies designed to raise scores of our nation, establishing instead. Reading programs sprout throughout our school system. Teaching strategies based on research results driven implementation. Teachers transfers received ineffective or no return notices. Students who can not be cut drop out. Parents who are able to allow pull their children out of schools public and place them in private schools.
However, go back and look at the studies again. There is something very obvious.
A typical class full students in South Korea or Japan looks nothing like a typical class in the U.S. The images (easily accessible on the Internet) blatant show something that can be explained in one word: diversity.
What languages are spoken (and understood) in South Korea? From Korea. In Japan? Japanese. What happens to the U.S. States? English, Spanish, Creole, Chinese, Vietnamese, Tagalog, Portuguese, Samoan, and dozens more.
Patrick McCormick of UNICEF said the study when he said that countries with an economically diverse population and large populations of immigrants ranked low on their list.
Well, welcome to America!
The beating continued our education system comes from studies like these, and wrong. However, legislators use this as a basis for making critical decisions affecting the education of our children. Validating the use of tougher demands on our schools, without recognizing the inherent differences of the population student, and that's wrong, too.
