Lately, Isabel Granada, a famous celebrity here from the Philippines, died.
She collapsed at Qatar while having a show. She went in comatose at a hospital there for more than 10 days already.
The other day, she was announced dead. She was only 41, young, beautiful and sexy. She was a health buff. But she smokes.
Her body will be brought back to the Philippines tomorrow, Wednesday.
She died of a brain aneurysm. She left behind a son and her second husband.
Everyone was shocked and suddenly was aware of what an aneurysm is. Television shows tackled how one can have it.
Reasons were high blood pressure, high bad cholesterol, genetics, stress, and smoking.
She was said to be always having headaches and hid her going to the doctor from her first husband about it.
Hubby and I were afraid of having it, so we took note of what caused it and will avoid it as much as we can.
My auntie died of it also many years ago. But she was already old so we thought it as of old age.
Do you know what aneurysm is and of someone who died of it?
Note: Picture of Isabel Granada is from yahoo

Yes I know what you're talking about. However we cannot go about life being afraid. There are people who live very long lives doing all the wrong things so one cannot be sure what is right or wrong. This is something that is totally unpredictable of course we must avoid bad habits. It can also be hereditary. See the link

Yes, like I have written, one of the cause is genetics.
I must agree we cannot live having fear all our lives. So we have to make some lifestyle changes if we know that our lifestyle is not at all healthy. Smoking is indeed one of the causes too. Good thing, me and hubby don't smoke.
Prevention is better than cure. So, having a healthy lifestyle is a starter.

Sadly she passed away in the prime of life.Here a person I know suffers from hemiplegia for 10 years now due to burst aneurysm.It is said that the cerebral angiography is used to early diagnose it.

An aneurysm refers to a weakening of an artery wall that creates a bulge, or distention, of the artery.Most aneurysms do not show symptoms and are not dangerous. But at their most severe stage, some can rupture, leading to life-threatening internal bleeding

Yes, I know what an aneurysm is and they can happen in all parts of the body, not just in the head. Back in January my father suffered from a gastro-intestinal aortic aneurysm and had to have a very serious surgery that lasted 8 hours. He has all of the bad things going for him that you mentioned above... high blood pressure, cholesterol, stress, and smoking. He was in the hospital for over a week recovering.
It is good that so many people were made aware of the seriousness of the problem and the signs to look for. Be vigilant and stay healthy.

I read she was an actress and sang. Like most popular people she has many looks. I am at this moment listening and her voice is nice. Of course I can't understand one word but its pretty.

You inherit it from your any of your parents. It's since birth. Only that it is not detected until it burst.
