Pushing Research to the Edge
“During a specialist checkup, I was told that I had a Dural Arteriovenous Malformation (Dural AVM) instead of an aneurism. I then underwent neurosurgery for its repair. I am confident that my gift to Heart & Stroke will fund further innovation to heart disease treatments to save future lives like mine.”
