Title: New artery network called??
Post by CarasMOM on Sep 12^th, 2004 at 2:29am

I was thinking today about Cara's cartoid artery network....that MM is affecting and will eventually completely shut down...therefore she will no longer have any cartoid arteries...but the STA-MCA and EMS would have developed a new network by then to do the job. I was curious what they call that...we have ways to go to get there....I do pray that enough is developed before the rest of it goes.

Tight hugs, carasMOM

Not sure what it's called... But I can tell you that Kathleen's arteries have completely closed which means that the new network of blood flow must be doing a good job supplying her brain. She hasn't had any strokes in 2 yrs!
