Birth control pills my butt
I doubt she was a smoker and then that correlation however slight is after many years
My guess is an anomaly in cerebral artery pathway

When I had a spontaneous carotid artery dissection at age 50, they did a bunch of tests at Barrow Neurological Institute in Phoenix. An incidental finding was that I had an arterioventricular malformation (AVM) in my brain. Apparently autopsies have shown that about 5% of ppl have an AVM and dont know it because theyre asymptomatic. Good to know, I guess, but not much I can do about it. If I was symptomatic I would get it clipped off, but since the procedure can go awry, I could end up with brain damage. Of course, then Id be a liberal, so...no thanks. 🤣

wardaddy - my mom’s best friend was in the early trials for the Birth Control pill.
She had 5 children and didn’t want more. She died at only 34 years of age - from a blot clot to her lungs. She was misdiagnosed, as the docs thought at first it was pleurisy.
I had to take care of her two little boys and distract them the day she died. They were 3 and 5. I was 18 at the time and had orders not to tell them. I was only 18, in shock, and devastated.
Birth control pills have some devastating side effects
