ADVANCE FOR USE SATURDAY, OCT. 1, 2016 AND THEREAFTER - In this Sept. 25, 2016 photo, Alana Sattler, 27, poses for a portrait at her parents home in Crystal Lake, Ill. When Sattler was just 6 weeks old, doctors told her parents their baby had a brain aneurysm, but it did not end up rupturing. However, Sattler wasn't as lucky in May 2014 when her brain aneurysm did rupture. September is Brain Aneurysm Awareness Month, and Sattler said she wants more people to be aware of the life-threatening condition. (Sarah Nader/Northwest Herald via AP)
