This Facebook group provides a valuable resource for Facebook users. It is extremely focused on AVMs and dispelling those myths and misgivings regarding the same. If you or a loved one has an AVM, had an AVM, and/or suffered from the rupture of the same, I encourage you to take a look. There is some fantastic information to be found here.
October is a significant month for many survivors, patients, families, and advocates, as it marks Arteriovenous Malformation (AVM) Awareness Month. During this time, we not only raise awareness about AVM but also celebrate the incredible strength and resilience of those impacted by this condition. AVMs are complex and potentially life-altering, but the stories of hope and survival remind us of the power of human determination.

October celebrates AVM awareness month. In an arteriovenous malformation (AVM), blood flows directly from arteries into veins. Ordinarily, capillaries connect arteries and veins to one another, but in an arteriovenous malformation, capillaries are absent.”
From The Aneurysm and AVM Foundation(link is external and opens in a new window) (TAAF), “AVMs are considered a rare disease, affecting 18 out of 100,000 people in the U.S. This rarity brings unique complications that aneurysm patients often do not face.” The Aneurysm and AVM Foundation also served as the originator of an awareness month dedicated to AVMs to start to bring focus and support to this patient community.

October is AVM Awareness Month & National Employment Disability Month. In the Organization I currently work for I am a member of the Multi-generational Network under Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion. I was blessed with an opportunity to write and publish an article to share my story for all employees nationwide on our internal page called T-Nation. It is only rare until it happens to you and we must do our part to spread knowledge.
