Hello!
For the month of September, I am raising funds for the Brain Foundation Australia to help brain aneurysm research and to spread more awareness.
In September 2022, my family friend and second aunty tragically passed away due to a sudden brain aneurysm. She was always by my side, supporting me in every step of my life and all my endeavors. Her sudden loss was a reminder of how fragile life can be and how little awareness there is about brain aneurysms—a condition that often goes undetected until it’s too late.
This fundraiser is dedicated to raising awareness about brain aneurysms and supporting vital research to help detect, prevent, and treat this condition. Through increased education and early intervention, we can potentially save lives and spare other families from the heartbreak of losing a loved one. Every donation will contribute to research and programs aimed at understanding and managing brain aneurysms, giving others a fighting chance.
In Australia, brain aneurysms affect a significant portion of the population, with around 2-5% of people thought to have an unruptured aneurysm. Most are unaware they have the condition, as it typically shows no symptoms until it ruptures. Annually, approximately 2,000 Australians experience a brain aneurysm rupture. Unfortunately, the survival rate is low, with about 40% of ruptures being fatal, and among survivors, many are left with long-term neurological damage.
Key statistics about brain aneurysms in Australia:
• Women are more at risk than men, especially those over the age of 40.
• Smoking and high blood pressure are major risk factors.
• Only 20% of people who suffer a rupture return to their previous level of functioning.
Given these alarming numbers, more research and awareness are needed to improve early detection and treatment options for brain aneurysms in Australia.
Please join me in honoring her memory by giving back to this important cause. Together, we can make a difference and help others live healthier, safer lives.
