amy - first I would like to say that I am so glad you are ok.  I don't know you however, when I heard about your aneurism, I was praying for you.  My son has cp as well as moyamoya and we are having his frst surgery next Monday.  Though I don't have the disease, I feel the same way about my son.  There is always something going on with him.  I used to get depressed all the time wondering about the future (his and mine)  I know things will not get much better for him.  But I am now on anti-depressants as well as praying a lot for strength and have learned to take it one day at a time because no one knows what their future holds.  I trust in the Lord and his plan for me and my family.  I just keep praying for strength.  I hope this helps you and know that you can only take one day at a time as it is given to you and remember no one knows what their future holds.

Hello,
I know how you feel. My daughter also has an anuerysm due to her Moyamoya. Everytime she gets a headache I get scared thinking that her anuerysm is going to rupture. It's like a ticking time bomb with that in her head. It's really hard to deal with. I think about it every day. She is going to get another arterial angiogram next month to make sure it hasn't grown since the last time she had one. I also always think that her Moyamoya could be spreading to the other side of her brain. I am really thankful for how wonderful she is doing and try to cherish every moment I have with her.
