Hello my name is Nicki Milin and I want to tell you the story about my cavernous angioma. Which is a brain bleed located at the steam of the brain before I had the surgery. I was asked to drive my friend to her doctor appointment. As I was driving I all of a sudden blacked out which scared me to know and I pulled over in disbelief. It was made clear to me that the time had come to have the surgery. I called Stanford and asked if they could make the surgery sooner which they did by a week. I have my husband quickly make plans to get to Stanford California for the procedure on my brain. I told people that I'm going to have the surgery, but most of the time it scared me more with their stories & comments. I decided to isolate my self and prepare myself to what's ahead of me. I can't allow fear to swallow me. I need to do what need to be done. I won't let the doc describe how procedure will be. It was really important to me to not show signs of fear to my love one. I want to show them that I was strong to face the surgery. In all honesty, I was terrified.
