Dr. Megan's story:

"What's with the helmet? Well, it's been a summer full of cows and one craniotomy. 7 months ago I was diagnosed with a ruptured cavernous malformation over the right parietal lobe in my brain. It caused numbness on the left side of my body, and some loss of motor function in my left leg. Faced with brain surgery and the risk permanent brain damage, I was worried I would never be able to work as a large animal vet again. I'm 27 - and only two years out of vet school. Were all those years of school, hard work and determination for nothing? Luckily I had a successful recovery with the help from a great team of neurosurgeons at the University of Calgary Foothills Hospital, the support from the staff at Veterinary Agri-Health Services, and my truly amazing husband who stuck with me through thick and thin (and when it was thick, it was reeeeally thick.) After two months I was back to work again and now I get to wear this helmet when I work with cattle. It's for extra protection, but also symbolic of the journey I went through. Seize the day, friends. You never know what life will throw at you, so appreciate what you can whenever you can."
