Daniel, I live in Lufkin, 2 hours North of Houston. Maybe we can get together in the spring and meet. I just read your story. You are so lucky to have made it that long. I didn't go into details with the beggining of my story,but I'm gonna tell you. I was 15 yrs old,went to school having a headache, 3rd period P.E. I was having chest pains and pain in my left arm. 4th period I passed out on the desk. My brother and his wife came and got me and took me to the ER. I was in a semi-coma. Could not speak clearly. The doctor comes in and the nurse said I told her I didn't go to school that day,and someone gave me something. I couldn't talk so my brother knew I didn't say that. They pumped by stomach out and gave me an injection for overdose. Sent me home 5 hours later-still couldn't talk. Began vomitting that night,parents took me back and demanded CT. By this time the AVM had already ruptured. Told me parents I wouldn't make it to Houston. Doctor in Houston said that injection should have killed me instantly,but the aneurysm had been leaking and must have closed up and then ruptured that night. God was not ready to take us yet- so glad you've had a good recovery.

Cool thanks for adding me as well.
It would be cool to meet up some time. I added every one that lives in the Texas area. Maybe we can all meet up some time. We live on the north side of Houston I 45 and 1960 west.

How many are from Texas? Most of the ones I've added are from outside of the U.S.

Great idea! You can also do a member search - advanced and search by location to find others in Houston.
