An attack of Brain Aneursym

Recently we all lost a person, who we know, to another attack of brain aneurysm . We deeply regret her loss and begin to look for causes. At this moment , everybody surrounding her is looking for some construed explanations of the happenings of last weekend. Meanwhile, I decided to learn about brain aneurysm, which I felt would be the best possible way to respect her.

Brain aneurysms are uncommon and mostly are hereditary; means genetic in nature.They are not caused by stress per se. However, one can formulate that taking stress normally shoots blood pressure up transiently. Such repeated shoots, even though undesirable for health in general, can still not cause aneurysm.So in all practical terms, stress is very very unlikely to cause brain aneurysm, if at all.

But within all this mumbo jumbo , I am very confident the stress involved in gothic,demonic institution such as Tennessee technological university can also have its contributors for her unfortunate condition. The support system available for International students to take on this beastly university is the worst at best. But thats a different issue to tackle on some other day.
But today , even though there is an absence of my physical presence to pay her respects, my thoughts and prayers go to their family and close ones.

May she rest in peace.

Well Bhavesh you stole words from my about to go public comments on this article. MS you did well covering this incident but one think I couldn't help notice is your real interesting style of writing. I don't have anything solid to say right now but give me some time coupled with your voracity for blogging will provide plenty.

Losing someone to a brain aneurysm is obviously a devastating thing.

I second what Bahavesh said...May it be the last incident of its kind.
