#hello everyone I'm jon
on august 1 2021 I had a pain on my side of my back and it was a pain no one should ever have it was like pounding non stop for two days. On the second day I couldn't take it and more and it was getting worse. So I called the ambulance they got me inside and took me to the hospital the doctor called for a CT scan from there they sent me into a room and all I remember is telling somebody please help me The pain is unbearable.It seemed  for ever lying there on the gurney finally they came in and the doctor said get him out of here he's going to die. They rushed me out to the helicopter they finally gave me something for the pain and I passed out I had a 2 Hour Helicopter flight two Portland Oregon Emmanuel legacy hospital from there I do not remember a thing. I woke up in the ICU my surgeon eventually came in and talk to me from there he immediately started drawing up what happened to me and what he had to fix he explained to me my aortic artery Behind my lungs was the size of a grapefruit down towards my leg I had another aneurysm in my aortic artery. My surgeon explain to me I am very lucky because when he open me up my aortic artery that was the size of a grapefruit bursted. I now have two graphs on my artery. The tingling this in my feet Is getting better but my bowls still have problems I hope this goes away and I can become normal. I'm still very scared on what happened but I'm slowly doing better.
