Spreading hope & awareness despite a difficult journey | Brain Aneurysm Survivor Story

Cary Hill began experiencing mini-strokes called TIA’s and headaches in her 20’s after becoming pregnant with her son. She went through years of being misdiagnosed with medical conditions such as migraines, stress and anxiety until she finally got the correct brain scan that showed a brain aneurysm.

Despite her difficult journey, her story is filled with a fighting spirit and self-advocacy that will leave you with a feeling of hope. Brain aneurysms are treatable and beatable.

Listen here and help Cary and the Brain Aneurysm Foundation share her story! Through awareness, we hope we can save the lives of people who don’t know they have a brain aneurysm and provide support to survivors and caregivers feeling lost or alone.

“The biggest takeaway from this is strength. I can stand on my own two feet…I can advocate for myself” -Cary Hill
