Daughter has emergency brain surgery....advice

Wishing the best outcome for your daughter and peace for you.

Glad there is good news for your girl BB, but understand you will have questions because the other member of the family who sadly died. No doubt the consultant can advise and reassure.

BigBertha1 The partner of a friend had surgery for an aneurysm about a month ago. She was worried sick he wouldn't make it and he spent some time in an induced coma in ICU. He's still in hospital but in a normal ward and has to be kept quiet. He's not allowed his phone, but he's making good progress and will be allowed home soon, when care can be arranged. He's only in his early 40s. He won't be able to work for a while, which is worrying, but fortunately friends and family are rallying round. He's been warned that he'll have to make some lifestyle changes (diet, smoking, alcohol), but he's going to be fine.

I appreciate everybody is different, but your daughter's aneurysm was discovered before it ruptured, so hopefully she'll be fine too.

Only just seen and caught up with your post on Thursday BigBertha. What a frightening, worrying thing to happen.
It sounds as the news is very positive and I hope that you are able to take a deep breath and just relax a little bit now.

Oh what good news Bigbertha and may it continue thinking of you both

Hugs and wishes for a speedy recovery BigBertha. xx

sounds good , BB.
so pleased. what a relief. now steady as she goes.
you try to look after yourself too. pace yourself.

Every good wish for a successful operation and recovery .

All best wishes to your daughter and family for a full recovery. 💐

Very good news concerning Victoria.

That does sound like good news, sincerely hope that the days ahead go well for your daughter

I have a friend whose brother has had this done 20 years ago and is still going strong physically but it did change is personality a bit, so be prepared for that, I think being an ex nurse makes you over think the situation perhaps more than a layperson. Fingers crossed for your DD , hopefully she comes out the other side without any side effects.💞

Such a relief for you all. May she get completely well soon.

Adding healing wishes, BigBertha1.

Encouraging news BigBertha.Adding my good wishes and prayers for Victoria and all the family🙏🏻💐

Thinking of you and Victoria, BigBertha and sending very best wishes for a good recovery.

I have no advice except for you to take some deep Yoga breaths and a moment or two of calm every so often during what is a very anxious time.

Glad your daughter is doing well after surgery, BigBertha. Hugs and ethereal support (same as prayers?) from me too xx
