Through Our Eyes: Why We Stride
Living with cavernous malformation isn’t just a diagnosis—it’s a daily journey filled with uncertainty, resilience, and hope. For my family, it started with a trip to a local urgent care with left sided facial and ear numbness and a rushed MRI scan about 3 months after my youngest son was born. Most people have never even heard of a cavernous malformation, and that included the nurse practitioner at the urgent care. Since then, it has been a struggle to find knowledgeable and understanding care.
That’s why we’re joining the 30 miles in 30 days challenge, from June 1–30, as part of Strides to Cure CCM. Every mile we walk honors the fight so many of us face—every mile raises awareness, fuels research, and reminds families like mine that we are not alone.
If you’re able, please consider joining us or making a donation. Together, we can take steps that lead to something greater—a cure.
