New/Updated Publications
We have recently made available two
publications for survivors and caregivers.
The first is our recently updated and
expanded Brain Aneurysm Recovery Guide,
which provides a wealth of information —
vetted by leading experts on our Medical
Advisory Board — about what to expect
following treatment and how to manage the
inevitable changes and challenges following
a ruptured brain aneurysm. The booklet
covers topics such as potential deficits,
physical changes, attention and executive
function, memory, social-emotional changes,
aids to recovery, and much more.
Our new Memory Book is a valuable tool that helps survivors and caregivers understand how a
ruptured brain aneurysm affects memory. This booklet includes useful tips on how to manage
everyday tasks, as well as an hourly log that helps survivors accomplish their goals each day.
You can read or download the booklets from our website. To request a print copy of either
booklet (at no charge), please contact us at office@bafound.org or give us a call at
1-781-826-5556 or 1-888-272-4602.
