'I found the love of my life, years later we made a shocking discovery'
I was told that my cavernoma had expanded to a dangerous level, and if left untreated it could burst and bleed into my brain, increasing my chance of a stroke, neurologic issues, or in the worst case scenario, death.
There weren't that many people—just close friends and family, but it was amazing to see everyone who had helped us along the way and everyone we loved come and reciprocate that.Alexander Cianciolo On the day of the surgery, on September 20, I had to arrive at the hospital at 5.45 a.m. It's an hour and a half drive from my house, so we left at 4.00 a.m. For the entire car ride, my wife and I were quiet; neither of us really said anything. At times I would try and make light of the situation, but Kaitlyn was an emotional wreck.
I hadn't realized initially, but the doctors who operated on me, Dr. Jennifer Moliterno Gunel and Dr. Murat Gunel at Yale School of Medicine, were actually a married couple themselves. While the process was nerve-wracking, both Jennifer and Murat were really positive about everything and made myself and my wife feel more comfortable about the whole situation.
