Today, I'm not just talking about stroke awareness; I'm sharing a story very close to my heart. I experienced a life-changing event due to a rare condition known as Carotid Webbing.
While attending a farewell party for my husband, amidst the chaos and excitement of my family preparing to relocate from Northern VA to San Diego for the Navy, I suffered a stroke. This unexpected twist was traced back to Carotid Webbing, a web-like formation in the carotid artery that significantly increases stroke risk.
My journey is a powerful reminder of why I must spread awareness about stroke and its less common causes, like Carotid Webbing. It’s a testament to the unpredictability of life and the importance of being informed and prepared.
Stay with me as I dive deeper into recognizing symptoms and sharing preventative tips.
