Hi, my name is Jenny,
and I wanted to share with you my journey
and my experience with CaringBridge.
In 2009, I was diagnosed with a brain aneurysm,
just 2 days before giving birth to my daughter.
At that time it was decided to take
a "wait and monitor approach".
Just two years later,
I started having some concerning symptoms
and in December of last year,
it was decided that I needed brain surgery.
Just one week before surgery, I found out about CaringBridge
through another patient.
It was so easy to set up
and in just minutes, I had my page ready
and the link sent to all my family and friends.
I was in the hospital for a week
and I had over 1000 visits on my page.
I really could hardly believe
how often people were checking.
Each day, I looked forward to reading the guestbook messages
and it really helped lift my spirits
during a difficult time.
Now, just two short months later,
I am still updating my CaringBridge site,
and sharing it with others.
Recently, I was able to set up a CaringBridge site
for a family, whose son
was injured in a very tragic accident.
I'm honored to be able to share
the CaringBridge resource with other families.
CaringBridge has allowed me to
spend time and focus on my
recovery,
and I'm enjoying each day with my family.
Thanks CaringBridge!
