My dad died of an aneurysm in his 70's after flying to Europe.  We thought
his blood wasn't circulating properly from sitting for 3 days straight on
two flights and then an all day car ride. Otherwise he did yoga and rode an
exercise bike when he was home. Jess

  My Dad had an aneurism.  They waited until he was in his 80s before it got
large enough for them to do the surgery.  It was all downhill from there.  I
have often asked why they don't do the surgery when the person is younger
and has more reserves to heal from it.  It may be a question they want to
ask the VA.

    I have a family member (64yr) that has been diagnosed with a heart
aneurism.  It is fairly large but the VA won't do anything until it gets
larger.  I wanted
    to ask if anyone is familiar with this problem and what natural
approaches might help this condition.  I don't know what they can do for
this condition.
    My cousin died of an aneurism of the spleen when he was 42.  I don't
know if this runs in families.
