Welcome to Neuro Talk. I am sorry to hear of your current situation. There are alot of people here that can help support you while you go through the surgery and fears that go with it. The thread for cerebal aneuresym is active, and I have met some really good souls on it. SDFencer, struggles with your condition also. Hopefully he will repond to you. Maybe you could PM him. He has alot of information and knowledge as he lives with this too. I wanted you to know that the people here will keep in touch with you during all of it. I care too. ginnie
