The Joe Niekro Foundation was established in 2007 in honor of the founders father, Joe Niekro, who lost his life from a sudden cerebral brain aneurysm on October 27, 2006. The astonishing lack of public awareness and under-support of research of such a widespread and often fatal condition led to the launch of a crusade to educate and encourage awareness about brain aneurysms, AVMs and hemorrhagic strokes.
can’t see where to ask question. My family history includes aneurysm. I have MRA with contrast scheduled with small country hospital, then will hopefully send report to Emory in Atlanta. Should I just schedule directly in Atlanta at Emory? Does it matter where I get MRA?
I am a 71y r old female with a 6mm Superior Hypophyseal Artery aneurysm that was discovered when I had a TIA Ischemic stroke that was very brief. There is also a small 2 mm aneurysm. My blood pressure is normal and I don't smoke and never have. I recently underwent a cerebral angiogram that I tolerated well. Was done through femarol artery in Houston at Methodist Hospital.
Thank you, this is exactly what I experienced. We are on the same path forward to living with an aneurysm. Dr Richard Williamson, Allegheny General, was my surgeon.

I did not have headche when my 18mm aneurysm ruptured (PCOM artery). Rather, I was immediately in coma for a month during which I had endovascular coiling. I developed almost all the complication he mentioned. I stayed 3 months in the hospital (the last one was the rehab). I lost the left eye field of both eyes.
Oh my gosh. Keeping your emotions in check through this video - don't know how you did it. Such a scary time. So glad to see you all here looking well. Incredible experience.
I had a raptured aneurysm 3 years ago, during my morning shower Something burst on my upper back head, worst headache I had,I was rushed to the hospital, there Waiting to be attend. by doctors, I keep on vomiting 24 hours past, no water or medicine, I was moved to another hospital, for neurological procedure.36 hours in agony, coiling procedure was performed, the results I had a stroke on my left side of my body . I was not able to walk for sometime, I was not able to work for 2 years. But God is soo good on me, the healing process is so well. Now I’m back to work slowly. My memory was affected.It’s just normal thing according to my doctor,sometimes headache,but manageable. Don’t allow stress,pressure, problem’s to overcome you. The doctors can cure but Healing ❤️🩹 comes from God! Godblessyou every one ❤️🩹❤️🩹❤️🩹🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
I bought the Niekro's 1987 book (I was able to get Phil to sign it in Mile High Stadium in Denver when he was managing the Richmond Braves, unfortunately I never got to meet Mr. Joe Niekro) when they were writing each other that whole season. Just two brothers having fun playing the game they loved . Great read by two classy guys.

I cannot believe this only has 72 likes. I grew up watching him living close to Houston. Especially liked when he was pitching against Phil. More wins for the stros than even Nolan Ryan. Another of my childhood hereos. RIP. My mother had an aneurism in the brain. She lived several years in a nursing home. But it was a horrible quality of life. It was a relief when she passed.
I have a 10cm deep inoperable AVM found it 4 yrs ago from a bleed ,and seizure,, had symptoms for a while before the grandmal seizures started,,I've recently weaned off the meds, I believe Stress and lack of sleep caused the bleed... what caused the bleed??? Thanks 🙏
My condolences to you on the death of your uncle Hall of Farmer Phil. I have heard he did his best to help raise Joes children. Perhaps he was a hall of fame uncle as well. After Joes death Phil always spoke that Joe was as good of a brother he could have.
Niekro is an Astros legend. I have to say, I think he deserved that CY. Wish we had another knuckleballer in Houston. Thanks for sharing the video and your cause.
God Bless you, you're a warrior, all us survivors are 💜. My annie rupture was genetic, I lost my sister to hers 8 years before mine, now I live for her too. Keep up the fight & love the new you because you are fabulous. #Warrior
I had a ruptured brain aneurysm in 2015! Would love to speak with someone. I would love to tell my story but not on RU-vid. I was on a college campus when I fell. Still remember everything
This information has really helped me. I have an unuptured anuerysm, pending surgery in 7 days. I got tired of worrying about whether the anuerysm would rupture. Had pains in my head in the middle of the night, which was very scary. This has gone in for almost 8 months now
I had a ruptured brain aneurysm still trying my best but lots of anger and easily upset not sleeping well during the night forgetful family no help always put me down like why I get so angry it make me so sad that they do not understand what I go through in silent I work talk but I always keep myself calm at work but when I go home I just go crazy because I have to be behave when at work I need help a another problem I cannot cry even if I try
