Today, we invite you to delve into the inspiring tale of *Sarah*, a remarkable individual who defied all odds and triumphed over a ruptured cerebral aneurysm and subarachnoid haemorrhage.

The Unexpected Journey Begins

It was an ordinary sunny day in July when *Sarah* suddenly collapsed to the ground, clutching her head in excruciating pain. Little did she know that this would mark the beginning of a life-altering journey filled with unimaginable challenges and remarkable courage.

A ruptured cerebral aneurysm occurs when a weak area in the wall of an artery supplying the brain ruptures, causing bleeding into the subarachnoid space. This rupture can lead to a subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH), which is characterized by severe headaches, loss of consciousness, and potentially fatal consequences if not promptly treated.

In 2011 I had a type of stroke, but not the more common kind. Mine was due to an aneurysm bursting in my brain. This lead to a sudden large bleed into the space surrounding my brain, known as a subarachnoid haemorrhage. Many people who suffer such a catastrophic event die or are left with severe debilitating consequences. I have been one of the lucky ones in recovering so well but, although compared to many my recovery has been fairly straightforward, recover from any brain injury is a slow process. Here I recount my own experience, first in hospital where the aneurysm was treated, followed by my recovery there and later at home in the following weeks and months, times when I often felt very alone and frustrated at my slow progress.
