Surviving brain aneurysm
In early 2012 at the age of 57, my wife Carolie experienced a life-threatening brain aneurysm. We have written a memoir of our experience in the public hospital system, in the Canberra Hospital (TCH) and RPAH Sydney to be precise. I was unsure how to reach the widest audience. After consulting a few people I've decided to publish our memoir as a blog initially as I am familiar with blogging and it suits my DIY approach. The blog address is: http://journeyinamedicallabyrinth.blogspot.com.au/
We have dedicated the blog to intensive care nurses everywhere. It was our experience in TCH and RPAH that exposed us to their extraordinary dedication. This is a warts and all exercise, so not every aspect of our experience comes out smelling of roses. However, it is a frank account of what happened.
