My only symptoms were a minor headache and slightly delayed vision in one eye. A year later, I am even more grateful for the power of my own intuition that something was wrong. As my better half @paulpistol always reminds me, “it doesn’t happen to you, it happens for you.” Today I am thankful for that love and perspective. For the gift of a talented and thorough neurosurgeon @skullbase_doc to guide me at @froedtert.mcw. The support from many who carried me. And the resilient, yet miraculous nature of our body and minds to recover from challenges and carry us forward.”
