She has three brain aneurysms as well as an aortic aneurysm.
Jackie: I got a full ride to Georgia Tech for basketball.

And they're telling us that they have to push Jackie's surgery?
The hospital needs to dedicate all resources to the heat dome.
Her father died of a ruptured brain aneurysm at 27.
Now we know it was probably Marfan, too.
We'd really like to get this taken care of.
We should sneak her into CT just to take a look.

Damn it. See this one in the posterior circulation?
That is on the basilar artery.
- That's new. - And big.
Mm-hmm. Yeah, that's Godzilla on steroids.
We need to embolize that immediately.
Do you do it endovascularly?
If we can get the right angle.
If not, we'll have to convert to open.
And I'm going to need you to put her on bypass.
Uh, no, it'd be too much stress on the heart.
It could cause the aortic aneurysm to rupture.
I mean, this could rupture at any second.
If that explodes, she's brain-dead.
So what do we tell the mom?
We tell her I will go in endovascularly,
and we pray that I don't have to open her up.
I don't understand.
I thought that all surgeries were postponed.
Well, her case is now considered emergent.
You said that the brain aneurysm could wait.
This new one is larger than the others.
And in a more concerning location.
Does that mean that it's harder to fix?
Mom, don't freak out.
I was going to need this anyway,
and she's the only doctor who actually said yes.
Are you sure you can still do this?
This aneurysm is difficult,
but it's the same game, and I've been playing for a long time.

but the underlying problem will always be there.
Can we hold on the negativity

Of course. Sorry.
