Story from Jam Press (Brain Pop Stroke)

Mum reveals how her brain 'popped' and caused a stroke as she picked up her daughter on a hike

A mum has revealed how she suffered a stroke when a blood vessel in her brain popped as she bent down to pick up her daughter.

Bridget Chiovari, 30, from Arizona, US, was on a hike with friends and their children but they stopped for a break and she took her 18-month-old daughter Liliana out of her carrier.

As the mum, who also was 24 weeks pregnant with her second child at the time, went to put Liliana back in the carrier, she felt a pop sensation in her head.

She said: "I told them I felt a pop, and then an awful headache.

"I even said 'I've never had a brain aneurysm before but I imagine that this is what it must feel like.'

"They hooked me up to an IV bag, gave me some Tylenol, told me it was dehydration, then sent me home to 'sleep it off'.

"Within 12 minutes of leaving the hospital, I had lost my ability to form words."

Returning to the hospital, her husband demanded a CT scan which showed Bridget actually had an arteriovenous malformation - a tangle of abnormal blood vessels which had become so tangled, one had burst, causing a massive stroke.

Bridget had been born with the ticking time-bomb and had no idea it was there until the moment it popped.

Bridget said: "I had an interventricular drain placed into my skull. This allows that excess blood and fluids to leave your body while they wait for the swelling of the brain to go down. This is the part that saved my life."

The mum didn't even know that what was happened was a stroke until she joined a Facebook group for other AVM surviours and someone e
