Bea's Story
Beatriz (Bea) experienced a brain aneurysm rupture in 2018. She was blessed to have survived the experience cognitively and physically intact. Unfortunately, that is not the case for most people impacted by a brain aneurysm.
Approximately, 1 in 50 people in the US has an unruptured brain aneurysm. Of those like Bea who rupture, over half of them die. For those who survive, the majority are left with cognitive and physical deficits. In other words, what Beatriz experienced was a miracle.
Not taking for granted her second chance at life, she embarked on a journey to improve her health, and as a result Beatriz is now in the best shape of her life. She has fallen in love with movement, become an endurance athlete, and will soon be completing races to qualify for the New York City Marathon.
During the month of March, Beatriz, invites you to move with her--ANY fun activity counts. Whether you hike, frisbee golf, or ride horseback, to Move With Bea is to raise brain aneurysm awareness and support The Aneurysm and AVM Foundation (TAAF).
March is a very special month for Bea as it marks the anniversary of her rupture, her birthday, and so much more. Get ready to celebrate. Get ready to Move With Bea!
