A 20-year-old man from Sterling Heights, Edward Constantineau, suffered a rare brain stroke caused by arteriovenous malformation while at the gym, but with quick medical intervention, family support, and intensive rehab, he is making a remarkable recovery and plans to continue his education and pursue a career in healthcare.
Logan Coleridge, a high school football player with a history of concussions, suffered severe headaches and neurological symptoms that were eventually diagnosed as an arteriovenous malformation (AVM) in his brain. After surgery to remove the AVM, he has recovered well and is returning to normal activities, highlighting the importance of early diagnosis and treatment for similar conditions.
Ryan Logan, now 21, was diagnosed with a rare brain arteriovenous malformation (AVM) at age 11, which led to a life-threatening brain bleed and multiple surgeries. His parents, frustrated by the lack of understanding and treatments for AVMs, started a foundation to support research into the condition. Through their foundation, they have raised $1.3 million to fund research into AVMs, hoping to prevent others from experiencing what Ryan went through. Despite lingering paralysis and other challenges, Ryan remains positive and is learning to golf with one arm, while his family continues to support and advocate for others affected by AVMs.
