Happy Endings
Mar 29^th, 2005 at 11:28pm

My name is Hollyn Robins. I was diognosed with Moya Moya at age four. Following a major stroke in 1990, I had the encephelo-duro-arterio- cinangiosus surgery done. Though I had one more significant stroke at age six, it appears that I have not had any further problems due to Moya Moya.

I am now nineteen years old and I enjoy the life God has granted me. I love to sing and spend time with my family and friends. I am a sophomore in college with a B average. The only problems I have as a result of my strokes are that I cannot point my toes on my right foot, (good thing I never wanted to be a ballerina) and I have problems with my balance. Riding a bike is not one of my strenghths.

I wanted to write this story to let all the parents of children who suffer from my disease know that there are happy endings.

My son had a stroke and surgery, at age 11 and I have been wondering how much he would go through in life. I am very glad to know that he can have a "normal" life. He is 13 now and has been tia free just over a year. Your story warms my heart to know that this can be his life from now on.

Hello everyone,

I will be going to Sanfrancisco soon to have an angiograhm. I have a disease called Hyperlipidemia, it's a metabolism problem. The doctors at UC San Fran recentely diognosed me with something, I can't even remember the name of it but my corotted arteries are severely clogged because of this other disease I have. Anyways, while checking that out they will be looking at my brain and seeing how well the surgery went and what activity has been going on there.

As soon as I am able, I will let everyone know what we found out and how well my prain is actually functioning.

God Bless and have a wonderful day!
Hollyn
