The name is Leah. I live in Cincinnati, OH. I really love to give advice! I have been here since November of 2004. But prior to joining here, I was always been seeked for advice. Still to this day, my primary concern is always helping someone out in need.

I am likely not the best columnist here, but I can quarantee I am very dedicated and concerned when I answer a question. If I answer a question you're not satisfied with, I will ask why, so I can try my best to change my answer. I only give people information that I know; not information that I might know. And if I notice a columnist giving you a wrong answer, you'll know I'll be correcting their response!!

I do allow everyone and anyone to ask a question. I may have listed favorite categories, but I really have no preference. I do love making new friends!! It's no problem to contact me by e-mail or IM. I do have a Myspace, and I will gladly give it out if asked! If you ever need advice, if you feel like ending it all, if you feel like no one cares, I am here!! Talk to me.. I will listen and I will help you!!

advice

My friend has survived a ruptured brain aneurysm before when she was younger. Yesterday she was supposed to come over but I kept calling her and she never picked up. Her sister left me a voice message today to call her. When I called her sister picked up. She told me that my friend had passed out so they took her to the hospital and they preformed surgery on her. She can't breathe on her own right now, she is unconscious. I think she said she was on life support and she said she is probably going to die.
Does anyone have any experience and know if she can live through this?

I don't have experience but I know a couple people who endured through this.

Well sometimes aneurysms can get better, but it depends how early they caught the aneurysm. I wouldn't lose hope on it yet because some aneurysm patients can get better but like I said it does depend greatly on how early it was caught.

The disadvantage is the more ruptured aneurysms you get, the less likely for survivial. And being unconscious doesn't mean an expected death. Things can get better, but it also depends on her state of health. Does she have any blood-related problems or diabetes? Because that can affect the outcome as well. So if you'd like (if possible) you can give me more information about her state of health and her diagnosis of aneurysm to be more specific and beneficial on the question. =]

I wish her the best of luck, though.

Well from the additional information, it seems that she will be ok. It's good they caught it when she suddenly passed out. From all you told me, there's a good chance she'll get better. But keep me posted =]

(Rating: 5) Thanks for your help. I added more info to the qeustion. I know the odds are looking pretty bad considering she's had one before but one has hope, right?
