It took a while to get the video put together but Dave did an amazing job and we’re very proud of everyone who participated. It was very windy, which is very evident in the video sound portions.

Six-Year Survivor
Friday was the sixth anniversary of my ruptured brain aneurysm. It was a horribly busy, and extremely tiring week at work. And a three-day headache added to the fun, so I was grumpy, tired and sad. Yes, I’m happy, blessed, thankful and lucky to have survived my rupture, but it’s now a very bittersweet day because ruptured brain aneurysms also took the lives of two people I loved very much.
In the past, I’ve tried to do something special for myself on the Annie-versary date, but this year it basically was a dinner out with my honey. Quiet and uneventful. Like I said…bittersweet.
This year also marked the first year I didn’t receive flowers on my anniversary from my family back in NY. I wasn’t disappointed, in fact I probably would have cried and been made sadder had they sent me flowers because it was something my late sister Dori always arranged. I thought about it once then forgot about it until my other sister Rhonda apologized for not sending me flowers. I wasn’t upset in the least and she should not apologize…we’re all still grieving.
So, another year down. I’m doing good, but already nervous about the next check up in the spring.
